The Passion of Dennis Potter

Vernon W. Gras, John R. Cook, Cook, John R.

"Dennis Potter was a most remarkable, idiosyncratic, and influential screen playwright, writing such shows as "The Singing Detective" and "Pennies from Heaven" for British TV during the last half of the twentieth century. In dramatizing the anxiety of his own inner journey, he articulated for the millions watching his shows their own distress about the fast-changing cultural environment. The Passion of Dennis Potter represents the first collection of international essays on this celebrated playwright. Along with essays from the world's leading scholars and experts on Potter, there are personal memoirs from friends and colleagues."--BOOK JACKET.
