Amazon.com Review
At the time of his death in 1977, Terence Rattigan was barely remembered by the theater-going public, yet 30 years earlier he was considered one of Britain's most important playwrights. Geoffrey Wansell's Terence Rattigan is the first critical evaluation of the author since his death and, as such, is a major contribution to theater history. More importantly, because Rattigan and most of his contemporaries are dead, Wansell is able to discuss freely their personal and sexual lives. Carefully documented and elegantly written, this biography adds immeasurably to our understanding of British gay male life and the evolution of a gay artistic sensibility.
Product Description
Geoffrey Wansell is the first writer to have been given full access to thousands of Terence Rattigan's private papers and to have talked at length to Rattigan's friends. From the heady days of his early success to the darker days of his decline in popularity, Wansell paints a captivating portrait of one of the century's greatest theatrical lights.
