Blood Knot and Other Plays

These three Port Elizabeth plays, which established South African playwright Athol Fugard's international reputation more than twenty years ago, examine with passion and grace close family relationships strained almost unendurably by the harshest of economic and political conditions. A rare playwright, who could be a primary candidate for either the Nobel Prize in Literature or the Nobel Peace Prize.--Mel Gussow, The New Yorker
