The Plays of James Reaney

by James Stewart Reaney

James Reaney grew up outside of Stratford, Ontario, and his keen interest in local stories and local history led to the epic and ground-breaking work, The Donnelly Trilogy , a group of plays which is highly regarded and widely taught. This book examines Reaney's major (and minor) plays, including The Killdeer for which the author won his third Governor General's Award, Colors in the Dark , the magical Listen to the Wind , and many others. It is written by his son, J. Stewart Reaney, and therefore provides a unique viewpoint on not only the plays but also the playwright.
