This first collection of plays by Marina Carr introduces the work of a major new voice in playwriting, includes:
Low in the Dark
"One of the most exciting, new and absolutely original aspects of Carr's writing is the manner in which the sexism of language and religious imagery is exposed . . . A playwright to be watched" ~ The Sunday Tribune
Patricia Coughlan
"A play of precocious maturity and accomplishment" ~ The Irish Times
By the Bog of Cats
"A piece of poetic realism steeped in the past . . . an extraordinary ability to move between the mythic and the real" ~ The Guardian
The Mai
"The writing is at once gentle and raucous . . . capable of articulating deep-seated woes and resentments in a manner you rarely find outside Eugene O'Neill" ~ The Observer
