Exit 4


Book Description

Exit Four is a collection of off-beat literary fiction originally published in university literary journals and elsewhere. The reader will find a long and very dark story set in subways in London, Paris, and New York; the invention of the chair, and how that disrupted an ancient culture; a couple who meet in a supermarket and how that place prefigures their lives together; an old man riding a train, who realizes that a young artist is drawing his gnarled hands; two lovers whose only real connection is a painting on a museum wall; and others. Some of these stories could happen, even if unlikely; others take place only in the uncertain world of the mind.

Plays 1682–1696: Volume 4, The Plays 1682–1696


Book Description

Aphra Behn (1640-1689) is renowned as the first professional woman of literature and drama in English. Her career in the Restoration theatre extended over two decades, encompassing remarkable generic range and diversity. Her last five plays, written and performed between 1682 and 1696, include city comedies (The City-Heiress, The Luckey Chance), a farce (The Emperor of the Moon), a tragicomedy (The Widdow Ranter), and a comedy of family inheritance (The Younger Brother). These plays exemplify Behn's skills in writing for individual performers, and exhibit the topical political engagement for which she is renowned. They witness to Behn's popularity with theatre audiences during the politically and financially difficult years of the 1680s and even after her death. Informed by the most up-to-date research in computational attribution, this fully annotated edition draws on recent scholarship to provide a comprehensive guide to Behn's work, and the literary, theatrical and political history of the Restoration.
