Su questo libro

L'autore

Christopher Fitz-Simon is a former Artistic Director of the Lyric Theatre, Belfast, the Irish Theatre Company and the Abbey Theatre, Dublin.

Among his books are THE BOYS, a biography of the Dublin Gate Theatre's Hilton Edwards and Micheal MacLiammoir - `A really wonderful book' (Bruce Arnold, Irish Independent); `Beautifully written, diligently researched, sometimes sad, often hilarious' (Keith Baxter, Daily Telegraph); `By far the most wideranging and atmospheric description of Dublin's wartime theatre' (Clair Wills in That Neutral Island); and ELEVEN HOUSES, a memoir of the 1940s - `Christopher Fitz-Simon's wry and dispassionate approach keeps the narrative bracing' (Patricia Craig, Times Literary Supplement); `The sense of total recall is astonishing...it is painfully funny' (Roy Foster, Irish Times).
