At age 26, Conor McPherson is one of the most compelling new writers to emerge from Ireland this decade. The first US publication of this Dublin based author collects all his dramatic work to date. The lead title, The Weir, has been an unqualified success in London, Dublin, and Toronto, and will premiere on Broadway in February 1999. Set in a pub in a Western Ireland county, The Weir creates a drama of interwoven stories as told by the locals and how they comfort and distract one another in the midst of desolation and grief. "Spellbinder that transfixes you ... no praise is too high ... The Weir offers the most exciting evening in theatrical London." -- The Guardian "The writing is rich, vivid, often wonderfully funny ... a distinctive talent to cherish." -- The Telegraph.Also included in this volume are three tour-de-force one character plays -- Rum and Vodka, The Good Thief, and St. Nicholas, a recent hit Off-Broadway in New York and the three character play, This Lime Tree Bower, where three men tell their overlapping tale of a fateful night in a small seaside town. ... "it's an old-fashioned, hard-boiled yarn, another nail-biter from this award-winning young playwright." -- Sunday Times.Taken together, these works provide an extraordinary offering from one of the most original writers of his generation.
