Collected Harauld Hughes

The Collected Harauld Hughes is a monumental mustering of the incandescent writer's work for stage and screen, scraping together, for the first time in Europe, Plays, Prose, Pieces, Poetry; The Models Trilogy; Four Films; and Several Pamphlets*. This exhausting anthology, thoroughly introduced by Richard Ayoade, includes a critical eulogy from Hughes's final wife, Lady Virginia Lovilocke, and a partly new foreword by cultural combatant and sarcasm survivor Chloë Clifton-Wright.'There's just so much . . . here' The Dramaturgist

Harauld Hughes was born in Cardiff in 1931. He wrote his first play, Platform, in 1960, but it was his fourth play, Roost, written, unusually, before his third play, Roast, which made his reputation. He remains one of the UK's most garlanded playwrights. He was married to the theologian and chef Lady Virginia Lovilocke. He died in 2006. Richard Ayoade was born in London and brought up in the badlands of Martlesham Heath. Sadly, he has written several books.
