VARIOUS VOICES AUDIOBOOK ABREVIADO

Harold Pinters plays are lauded the world over but, until now, little has been gathered together of his other writings. Various Voices presents a wealth of material and a multiplicity of form in which to enjoy the crystal clarity of language and style which marks out Pinter as a true original. Through Various Voices the reader can trace Pinters development from a nascent writer exploring the boundaries of his craft to the assured maturity of his later work.Various Voices comprises Pinters own selection of his prose, prose fiction, poetry and political writings. His prose choices range from the marvellously erudite A Note on Shakespeare (1950), to a celebration of cricket and cricketers in Len Hutton and the Past (1969); his short stories begin with the subtle dialogue of Kullus (1949) and end with Girls (1995); his poetry starts with School Life (1948) and travels through the years to the powerful and moving Death (1997); and his political writings, including many of his letters to the editor, illustrate the depth and sincerity of his long-held views on a number of human rights issues around the world. This is an essential companion to Pinters plays and enables the reader to fully appreciate the breadth and depth of a body of work spanning a period of fifty years.
