Tom Stoppard, Rosencrantz And Guildenstern Are Dead

In this incisive commentary Dr Sales presents Stoppard as a supremely professional man of the theatre. His plays may be examples of ‘postmodernism’ and touch on deep issues, but they also possess a mischievous genius for parody and camp humour. Dr Sales provides a richly detailed analysis of Rosencrantz, showing it to be a very considerable work indeed.
