Richard Cameron's most popular and acclaimed work together in one
volume introduced by the author This volume includes Can't Stand Up
for Falling Down, Pond Life, Mortal Ash and All of You Mine. Can't
Stand Up for Falling Down, written as interweaving monologues, is a
contemporary coming-of-age play set in rural Yorkshire and centres
around a death that may not be quite as accidental as it seems
"Cameron's play is itself cumulatively and salutarily
devastating...building up a picture from many partial perspectives,
the monologues are beautifully arranged" (Independent); Pond Life
is a play about a life-changing fishing expedition "the
unpatronisingly sensitive vignette of adolescence explores more
angles than angling in these youngsters' lives" (Mail on Sunday);
Mortal Ash is a tale of youthful love, death and regeneration; All
of You Mine deals with the miners' strike of 1984 and it's effects
on an ex-pit village near Doncaster "there is a remorseless
Ibsen-like vigour about the way he uncovers lies, motives and bad
faith" (Sunday Times)." Over the past few years, Cameron has
emerged as the shrewd chronicler of a small-town, post industrial
England whose experience is quite distinct from that of city
dwellers." (Guardian)
