Product Description

Synopsis

With new, unpublished interviews covering the last eight years - including his massive new trilogy - this is the most up-to-date account of Stoppard's work - and largely in his own words; With The Coast of Utopia, his massive National Theatre trilogy on the roots of the Russian Revolution, Tom Stoppard has surely - at 65 - reached the peak of an amazing career. From Rosencrantz and Guildenstern and to Jumpers, Travesties, The Real Thing and Arcadia, Stoppard has regularly combined box-office success with intellectual appeal. New York Times critic, Mel Gussow, has been meeting and talking to Stoppard about his work since 1972. Conversations with Stoppard was first published in 1995. For this new edition, Gussow has conducted three further, extensive interviews on the occasions of the opening of The Invention of Love in London and New York, and of course on the subject of the new trilogy. These interviews have never been published before. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Genius Playwright 18 Jan 2003
By "plattypus" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Tom Stoppard is one of, if not the, most important living playwrights. His writings have covered a large range of subjects such as love, imperialism, chaos theory, horticulture, philosophy, theology, and literature among many, many others.

In this collection of interviews between Gussow and Stoppard, the reader is let into Stoppard's mind, and the playwright relates how he chooses subjects, his approach to writing, what art means to him, some of his philosophies on life, among much else. Stoppard is witty and pithy, and Gussow is a wonderful interviewer.

This book is a must for any Stoppard lovers, as it gives one complete access to his thoughts, and is highly recommended for anyone interested in the theatre or playwrighting.
