Bernard Crick shows that much "Political Theatre" is often both bad theatre and simplistic politics, but that good producers bring out the political elements, even in apparently unpolitical dramas such as "Twelfth Night". In his discussion of Orwell, he emphasises the role of biographer as historian rather than "novelist", and challenges the view that the far Left dominated writing in the Thirties. Like Orwell he believes that good writing is not always for a good cause, and that the good cannot always write.
This lively collection of essays gives a non-technical, but profound analysis of the essential relationship between politics and literature.
