Description
Trevor Griffiths has been a critical force in British television writing for over three decades. His successes have included the series Bill Brand (1976), his adaptations of Sons and Lovers and The Cherry Orchard (1981), and his television plays, The Comedians (1979), Hope in the Year Two (1994), and Food for Ravens (1997).
During his creative life, he has negotiated the issues of genre, politics, identity, class, history, memory, and televisual form with a sustained creativity and integrity second to none. He has paralleled this career with one equally as eminent in the theatre, as well as slightly more problematic forays into film-writing for Warren Beatty's Reds and Ken Loach's Fatherland.
John Tulloch's incisive and wide-ranging volume is a perfect entry point not only for students of Griffiths' oeuvre, but also for anyone entering the discourses of television, media, and cultural studies.
