Collected Plays 2 Oxford University Press, 1971. Trade Paperback. Good. Cover edge wear & corner creasing, smudging on covers, spine creased, binding cracked, light page toning, general shelf wear, stickers & sticker remnants on back cover & spine. "'"The Lion and the Jewel" alone is enough to establish Nigeria as the most fertile new source of English-speaking drama since Synge's discovery of the Western Isles.' - "The Times". The ironic development and consequences of 'progress' may be traced through both the themes and the tone of the works included in this second volume of Wole Soyinka's plays. "The Lion and the Jewel" shows an ineffectual assault on past tradition soundly defeated. In "Kongi's Harvest", however, the pretensions of Kongi's regime are also fatal. The denouement points the way forward. "The Two Brother Jero" plays pursue that way, the comic 'propheteering' of the earlier play giving way to the sardonic reality of "Jero's Metamorphosis". "Madmen and Specialists", Soyinka's most pessimistic play, concerns the physical, mental, and moral destruction of modern civil war.".

Madmen and Specialists 1971, Methuen True Paperback 7¼" x 4¾". 77pp. Notes [From the cover “Wole Soyinka's most recent full-length play, Madmen and Specialists is set in the context of war and the aftermath of war. Dr Bero is a medical specialist who goes to the front as a doctor and there changes profession to become an intelligence specialist. The 'mad- men' of the play's title are Dr Bero's father and his followers in the mocking cult of 'As'. This is an ironic expression of horror not only at his own son's change of roles but at the universal triumph of expediency and power lust, which makes dehumanisation possible, even in wars.”] Condition Very Good.
