Michael Frayn Plays: 4: Copenhagen, Democracy and AfterlifeMichael FraynISBN:9781408128626Publisher:Methuen DramaPublication Date:2010Binding:SoftcoverSynopsis: Michael Frayn is one of the great playwrights of our time, enjoying international acclaim and prestige. This anthology contains three of his strongest titles of serious drama: Copenhagen, Democracy and Afterlife. The volume features the definitive version of each play together with an introduction by the author and a chronology of his work. Copenhagen: ‘The most invigorating and ingenious play of ideas in many a year and a work of art that humanizes physics in a way no other has done’ New York Times 'Michael Frayn's tremendous new play is a piece of history, an intellectual thriller, a psychological investigation and a moral tribunal in full session.' Sunday Times 'A profound and haunting meditation on the mysteries of human motivation.' Independent Democracy: ‘Michael Frayn's complex and richly rewarding new play…is wonderfully alert to the piquant paradoxes and ironic twists of this intensely tricky period in Germany's conversation with itself.’ Independent ‘What makes Frayn's play essential viewing is its Schiller-like grasp of practical politics’ Guardian 'Michael Frayn's Democracy…is one of those rare dramas that don’t just dare to think big but that fully translate their high aspirations to the stage, with sharp style and thrilling clarity’ New York Times Afterlife: 'This play is almost literally brilliant - it glitters, shines and gleams with Frayn’s trademark perceptive wit as it sends up the whole concept of theatre in the process of telling a strong, essentially tragic biographical story "The Stage".
