This book represents the first collection of original critical
material on Martin McDonagh, one of the most celebrated young
playwrights of the last decade. Credited with reinvigorating
contemporary Irish drama, his dark, despairing comedies have been
performed extensively both on Broadway and in the West End,
culminating in an Olivier Award for the The Pillowman and an
Academy Award for his short film Six Shooter.
In Martin McDonagh: A Casebook, Richard Rankin Russell brings
together a variety of theoretical perspectives ??? from
globalization to the gothic ??? to survey McDonagh??'s plays in
unprecedented critical depth. Specially commissioned essays cover
topics such as identity politics, the shadow of violence and the
role of Catholicism in the work of this most precocious of
contemporary dramatists.
Contributors: Marion Castleberry, Brian Cliff, Joan Fitzpatrick
Dean, Maria Doyle, Laura Eldred, Jos?? Lanters, Patrick Lonergan,
Stephanie Pocock, Richard Rankin Russell and Karen Vandevelde.
