The leading British writer-director of his generation, David Hare is also one of the most productive. The last two years have seen the outstanding success of two stage plays, The Secret Rapture and Racing Demon, and the release of two films, Paris by Night and Strapless.

The pieces collected here, written left-handed, form both a concealed professional autobiography and a lucid commentary on his work.
