About this ebook
Features the plays Debris, Osama the Hero, After the End and Love and Money. These four plays are linked by their characters' desperate need to believe that there is more to life than the often brutal worlds in which they find themselves. Kelly's remarkable debut Debris finds humour and pathos in a spectacularly dysfunctional family unit. The harrowing Osama the Hero shows a group of neighbours taking ill-defined revenge on an odd-ball teenager in a climate of fear. In After the End a woman discovers she has been rescued from Armageddon by a paranoid ex-colleague with a nuclear bunker in his garden. And in a fractured narrative Love and Money portrays a marriage driven to brutal destruction by financial pressures.

Reviews for Dennis Kelly

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Dennis Kelly is a brilliant playwright. His style is having no style. Every page takes you by surprise, every play that he's written leaves you in a cloud of uncertainty, with so many questions and some shivers on your spine. You think you understand what is going on, but then something happens and you realize you had it all wrong, that there's more to it than it seems.
