      To coincide with the centenary of his birth in December 1907, Oberon is pleased to be publishing three volumes of plays by Christopher Fry, one of the most influential playwrights of Britain in the twentieth century. Fry's autumn and winter plays - "Venus Observed" and "The Dark is Light Enough" - are joined by the historical play "Curtmantle", about Henry II. All three focus on a compelling central character who dominates those around them.

      Christopher Fry was born Arthur Hammond Harris in 1907. After a short stint as a teacher, he renamed himself Christopher Fry, and during the 1930s worked in a variety of theatrical jobs. After the Second World War he began to make a name for himself as a verse dramatist with the one-act play A Phoenix Too Frequent and the full-length drama The Firstborn (both 1946). However, the major success of his career came with The Lady's Not for Burning in 1948, which ran for nine months in the West End and is still frequently revived. He later wrote screenplays for Hollywood, as well as plays, adaptations and essays.
