Benefactors conjures the world of the suburbs observed through the lens of post-imperialism
" ... dazzling. This prismatic work circumscribes the disillusionment of an era" ~ New York Times
Balmoral dares to imagine what Britain would be like if it had gone through the Russian revolution in 1917
" ... a sophisticated drollery, an educated amusement" ~ New Statesman
Wild Honey is a reworking of Checkov's first play (also known as Platonov) and is shot through with farce, feminism and eroticism
