The Theatre of Jean Anouilh

by H.G. McIntyre, Jean Anouilh

This introductory survey for those unfamiliar with Anouilh covers the whole of his work, up to and including the most recent plays available at the time of writing. It also attempts to counter the prevailing criticisms of Anouilh's work and suggest the basis for a new understanding and fundamental reappraisal of his place and importance in the contemporary French theatre.
