Even then, in the mid 1980s, they appeared as if from a different time and place. Flipping through the pages today, the work appears even more alien. Its subject matter in Forty Years On belongs to a generation now so much in the past that its theme of lost innocence itself seems to belong to some scheme of diminished innocence. It's a world whose sepia tinted photos vie with dust motes in eliciting a sense of nostalgia in the dim afternoon sun. The fault, however, is mine, not Bennett's. Vulgarity and brutality conquers all, I suppose. Still, it seems such a distraction, now. ( ) Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
'Alan Bennett's most gloriously funny play... a brilliant, youthful perception of a nation in decline, as seen through the eyes of a home-grown school play... a classic.' Daily Mail Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
