David Hare Plays 1 - Slag; Teeth 'n' Smiles; Knuckle; Licking Hitler; Plenty (Paperback, Main)

Introduced by the author, this first volume of David Hare's plays contains his work from the seventies, including the landmark play of that decade, Plenty (1978), which deals with the subservience of journalists to the power-hungry businessmen that dominate London's Fleet Street. Also included in this edition is Teeth 'n Smiles (1975), a satirical commentary on the state of modern British society; Slag (1970), set in a school for girls, which tells the story of three teachers who attempt to establish an alternative society—while deciding to abstain from sex—and won him the Evening Standard Award for most promising new playwright; Knuckle (1974), the first of Hare's plays to be produced in London's West End, which received the John Llewellyn Rhys Memorial Award; and Licking Hilter (1978), a teleplay written for the BBC, set in World War II to examine the pervasiveness of lies in English culture.
