Publisher's Synopsis
Ireneusz Iredynski made his debut in literature as a Polish "angry young man" in the late 1950s. He moved from verse to stage plays, film-scripts and plays for radio. While some of the plays in this collection seem to present a bleak view of life, they show a gentler side of Iredynski. Here it is people's dreams rather than their worst nightmares that are explored. In these plays, situations are kept simple and the theatrical technique is spare and economical, but yet, the playwright demonstrates a feel for theatre and shows himself a master of dramatic tension and the final unexpected twist.
