The Township Plays - Athol Fugard

Athol Fugard is one of the most respected and frequently studied of living dramatists. Working in active collaboration with the people of the South African townships, his plays are informed and powerful portraits of the black urban experience. Edited with an Introduction, notes, and a glossary by Dennis Walder, a leading critic of South African literature, this book collects the five `township plays' - Nongogo, No-Good Friday, Sizure Bansi is Dead, The Island, and The Coat - in a single volume for the first time, the latter of which has never been published in Britain before. The Township Plays, No-Good Friday; Nongogo; The Coat; Sizwe Bansi is Dead; The Island - Athol Fugard. OUP Oxford 1993. ISBN 9780192829252
