Discussing the argumentative nature of British playwright Joe Penhall's plays, this book places them within the context of contemporary British society and the modern dramatic tradition. His eight plays are discussed in detail, with particular attention paid to male identity, the nature of grief, the variety of females in his oeuvre, domestic drama and the role of autobiography in his work.
