A better class of person (an extract of autobiography for television) ; and, God rot Tunbridge Wells - Softcover
From Library Journal:
Osborne, whose name is nearly synon ymous with the ``angry young man'' of British post-World War II drama, wrote this script for British television. The period portrayed is that of the dra matist's school years, and England is at war. In an impressionistic style the in dividual scenes reveal the young boy often alone because of his father's pre carious health and the mother's need to work; the schoolboy experiencing the intense bombardment of England; the youth expelled from public school for striking the headmaster. Despite sever al poignant scenes, this script is not representative of Osborne's best work. Comphrehensive collections of Os borne would want this, but more selec tive collections would do better to ac quire his autobiography, A Better Class of Person . Theodore O. Wohlsen, Jr., Connecticut State Lib., Hartford
