Six Plays by Black and Asian Women Writers (design may vary) (Plays by Women)

Good condition.

this was the first book I found that offered me not only some characters who I could relate to - but also some examples of plays written by black and asian women. I find it really useful for working with pupils at secondary level, especially girls although there are some good parts for boys too especially in Winsome Pinnock's play. And it has the first screenplay by an Asian woman author on BBC, I think, written by Meera Syal, titled 'Her Sister Wife.'

All the plays in this excellent book deserve a wider audience. They reveal an untapped source of literature. There are different voices present in all the texts which seek to speak not only to Black and Asian readers but also to everyone concerned with human relationships.
