David Williamson is one of Australia's most significant and celebrated cultural figures. For over thirty years his plays have been the mirror to which many Australians have turned to see themselves reflected - from the early, coruscating sensations of Don's Party, The Club and The Removalists to the annual smash-hits like Emerald City, Travelling North and Brilliant Lies. His life has been as engaged and interesting as his art. He has been at the white-hot welding point of art and politics - friend of most of the significant artistic and political figures of his generation: Peter Carey, Jack Hibberd, Gough Whitlam, Bruce Beresford, Clifton Pugh, Paul Keating. His wife, Kristin, takes us behind the scenes - into the study, the dining room, the rehearsal room - to give us the ultimate portrait of the man whose plays have so defined his times and his country. Size: 180mm - 250mm. 546 pages. There are remnants of old price label(s) on the rear cover. Dust Jacket has a few small chips & tears to the extremities as well as some shelf wear and bumping to corners / extremities.
