'I can't escape it, I can't forget it. And I can't begin again.'
Bill Maitland, a middle aged lawyer, struggles to avoid the harsh truths of his life and keep a hold on reality. As those closest to him begin to draw away, he puts himself on trial to fight for his sanity.
John Osborne's poignant, witty and intensely compelling portrait of loss, betrayal and defeat unleashes the author's characteristic soaring rhetorical venom to powerful effect.
