"A play of depth as well as dazzle, intensely moving as well as
thought-provoking and funny." --"The Daily Telegraph"
An unruly bunch of bright, funny sixth-form (or senior) boys in a
British boys' school are, as such boys will be, in pursuit of sex,
sport, and a place at a good university, generally in that order.
In all their efforts, they are helped and hindered, enlightened and
bemused, by a maverick English teacher who seeks to broaden their
horizons in sometimes undefined ways, and a young history teacher
who questions the methods, as well as the aim, of their schooling.
In "The History Boys," Alan Bennett evokes the special period and
place that the sixth form represents in an English boy's life. In
doing so, he raises--with gentle wit and pitch-perfect command of
character--not only universal questions about the nature of history
and how it is taught but also questions about the purpose of
education today.
