Henry Iv Part Ii [Bok / Pocket]

<i>It is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black, the cobblestreets silent...</i><br/><br/>In the Welsh seaside town of Llaggerub, night is moving in the streets. Its inhabitants are lost in the land of dreams: old Captain Cat catches up with his drowned shipmates, Mog Edwards the draper is consumed by mad love for Miss Price the dressmaker, and Mrs Ogmore-Pritchard whips the ghosts of her two late husbands into shape. As the sun rises, the 'dismays and rainbows' of each character are played out within the cycle of one day, intertwining voices and lives, dreams and reality. By turns tender, hilarious and beautifully lyrical, Dylan Thomas's 'play for voices' is his most beloved work and a landmark of Welsh literature.

HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. <br/><br/>'Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight!<br/>For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.' <br/><br/>Arguably the greatest love story ever told, Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet continues to touch modern audiences with its passionate depiction of the tragic romance between two young lovers. With a bitter feud between their respective families, Romeo and Juliet's love is troubled from the start, and through their relationship, Shakespeare shows the fine line between love, hatred, comedy and tragedy.

<b>James Joyce's only surviving play, <i>Exiles</i> builds upon one of his most famous short stories, 'The Dead', as well as elements of his own life.</b><br/><br/>It follows the story of writer Richard Rowan, who, along with his 'common-law wife' Bertha and their young son Archie, has come home to Dublin after ten long years away. Yet far from bringing comfort and ease, the couple's return to the place where they first met triggers an existential questioning, an anxiousness which is exacerbated by meetings with old friends and lovers. <i>Exiles</i> is a profound exploration of jealousy, doubt and the complexity of human desire.<br/><br/>'A landmark of modern theatre that explores the byzantine complexities of marriage with the honesty of genius' <i>Guardian</i><br/><br/>With a new introduction and notes by Andrew Gibson
