Description

|
Between his Tony Award–winning plays Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead and Travesties, Tom Stoppard penned this 1972 satire of academic philosophy, originally starring Michael Hordern and Diana Rigg. It is a play that asks, "What do we really know?" and "Where do values come from?" in the context of a competitive gymnastics event, at the same time parodying the detective thriller, the comedy of manners, and the low comedy of Whitehall farce. Elegant in its simplicity, this handsome Faber Library edition is printed on cream stock with generous margins and features a gold-stamped spine and colored endpapers with a matching dust jacket.
