The Drowned World
By: Gary Owen

Available for despatch within 2-3 weeks. Delivery estimates

Winner of the George Devine Award for 2002, published to tie in with the opening at the Traverse Theatre at the Edinburgh Festival



And that is why we can't have these/Fatally radiant creatures/Walking round the place/Reminding us how clumsy/And mean-spirited/And graceless/And cowardly/And shapeless/And flabby and foul we all are.

In a drowned world - how far will you go to save your own skin? In this vicious tale of love, revolt and beauty, Gary Owen presents a vision of a world divided between citizens and non-citizens, where friends betray one another and where surfaces matter more than love or kinship.

"A blazing new talent" Guardian

"A blast of brilliant theatrical writing straight from the heart of post-modern Wales" Scotsman
