Details of the book
Coward, the Playwright (Modern Theatre Profiles)

As the centenary of Noel Coward's birth is reached, a spate of new Coward titles have been published in celebration of his life and work. Coward The Playwright, while not exactly celebratory in nature, is invaluable for real aficionados--fans who have seen every play and can recite chunks of dialogue with the correct intonation--less expert but interested parties might be better served by a standard biography, such as Philip Hoare's Noel Coward or My Life With Noel Coward by Graham Payne.

Lahr's writing style is dense and wordy and is unfortunately somewhat difficult to follow. Assuming a great deal of prior knowledge on behalf of the reader, he jumps right into the serious stuff from chapter one. Despite its broad-based title Coward The Playwright is useful primarily--perhaps exclusively--to academics. John Lahr's intention--and it is one he valiantly succeeds in achieving--is to study Coward's theatrical legacy in minute detail. The recurrent themes and favourite tricks of Coward are compared and contrasted intelligently; his original wit is sharpened by Lahr's illumination of circumstance, dissected and analysed at length. Some biographical detail is included to explain Coward's choice of subjects and to chronologically chart the maturity of the work he produced but ultimately this is an admirably thorough study guide--no more, no less. --Helen Lamont
