A Style and Its Origins by Howard Barker
Eduardo Houth is the author's alter-ego. Writing of himself in the third person and in the historic tense, the author achieves a fluency and an uncommon measure of objectivity. The result is an exercise in self-description, partisan but without the shrill self-justification so common in authentic autobiography.
Howard Barker is an internationally renowned dramatist, whose first plays were performed at Royal Court Theatre and by the Royal Shakespeare Company. Since 1992 his work has been presented by his own company The Wrestling School. Barker is also a poet and theorist of theatre, whose 'Theatre of Catastrophe' defines a new form of tragedy for our times.
