First published in 1983, Harold Pinter is an original study into the work of one of Britain's foremost dramatists. The book celebrates Pinter's elusiveness as a writer. It considers his position as a specifically contemporary writer of the post-modernist tradition, and explores his use of language as a sophisticated means of non-communication, acting as a smokescreen behind which his characters lie.
