About This Item
The Kent State University Press 1978 hardcover, 9 1/4" x 6", with dust jacket Excellent copy with firm binding. VERY GOOD book in VERY GOOD price-clipped dust jacket.. Dark-red cloth-bound boards with gold type to spine, blood-red endpapers, index. During his 50-year creative life, Sean O'Casey delighted in those who take pleasure in life, and using the stage as his vehicle, made satire his weapon. This book traces O'Casey's emerging satiric vision, providing new allusions and fresh insights by reference to his published volumes of essays, correspondence, reviews, and his difficult autobiographies. His characters may have been Dublin tenement dwellers, but his theme was the human condition. An enlightening guide to one of the twentieth century's greatest dramatists.
