Harold Pinter's plays include The Birthday Party, The Homecoming, and The Caretaker. They have become seminal works in our literary canon. Pinter has always been reluctant to comment on his work, preferring to let his writing speak for itself. Now, for the first time, Pinter presents his own selections from a prolific body of prose, poetry, and political writings, offering new insight into the man and his literary and dramatic oeuvre. Various Voices comprises a wealth of material and a multiplicity of forms that demonstrate both Pinter's development as a writer and the stylistic precision he so consistently achieves outside the more familiar context of his plays. Through Various Voices the reader can trace Pinter's evolution, from his youthful explorations into the boundaries of his craft to the seasoned maturity of his later work.
