Peter Shaffer Volgorde van de boeken (chronologisch)
Peter Shaffer was een Engelse dramaturgo wiens toneelstukken vaak thema's als identiteit, obsessie en psychologische conflicten verkennen. Zijn meesterlijke dialogen en sterke dramatische structuur boeien zowel publiek als lezers. Shaffer blonk uit in het creëren van complexe personages die de ingewikkeldheden van de menselijke geest weerspiegelen. Zijn werken worden nog steeds gevierd om hun intelligentie en emotionele diepgang.

In "Equus," which took critics and public alike by storm and has gone on to become a modern classic, Peter Shaffer depicts the story of a deranged youth who blinds six horses with a spike. Through a psychiatrist's analysis of the events, Shaffer creates a chilling portrait of how materialism and convenience have killed our capacity for worship and passion and, consequently, our capacity for pain. Rarely has a playwrite created an atmosphere and situation that so harshly pinpoint the spiritual and mental decay of modern man.
The first stage success from the author of EQUUS and AMADEUS. This family drama centers on a young German student who, coming to England to tutor the daughter of a well-to-do family, is drawn into the various individual dramas of these fractured, isolated people.
