Description

Explore the deep connection between criminality and contemporary drama in The Art of Crime. Assembled by scholar Leslie Kane, this volume brings together 15 original essays that examine how crime functions within the plays and screenplays of Harold Pinter and David Mamet. These two writers represent some of the most influential voices in modern drama, and this collection provides a detailed look at their work. This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, and theater enthusiasts. The essays focus on individual writers or use a comparative approach to analyze their scripts.
