Knives in Hens de David Harrower

Knives in Hens: Modern Plays

Autor David Harrower
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 aug 2017
'I have no name for the thing which is in my head. It is not envy. It is more than envy. It does not scare me. I must look close enough to look at what it is.'
A ploughman and his wife live a simple existence in a pre-industrial time until they, along with the hated local miller, are drawn into a struggle of knowledge, power and attraction.
David Harrower's haunting play established him as one of the UK's leading contemporary playwrights. This new edition is published to coincide with the new production of this tense modern classic at the Donmar Warehouse in August 2017, directed by Yaël Farber.

Recenzii

An outstanding . . . play, David Harrower's Knives in Hens is set in a God-fearing, pre-industrial world and deals, passionately and intelligently with a woman's discovery of a language that corresponds with her feelings . . . A remarkable debut.
David Harrower's remarkable debut as a professional dramatist creates a haunting, poetic and entirely individual world of its own. I have never seen a play quite like it. . . You leave the theatre in no doubt that you have watched one of the year's most heartening and accomplished debuts. Harrower already seems like a writer built to last.
If one definition of a classic is that it constantly yields new meanings, then David Harrower's play deserves the title...****
It is an atmospheric, powerful piece.
I was awed by its linguistic verve...So watertight is the writing, though, that its profundity and mystery remain intact.
...the language is taut and visceral and the dramatic impetus slow but inexorable.
...stark, strange modern classic...Harrower's language is curt and harsh: the cast hack the story out with it, carving the air with terse, hard, poetic interactions.
