Ireneusz Iredynski
Author: Kevin Windle
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136474501
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
This vibrant anthology of radio plays features works by one of Poland's 'angry young men' playwrights. Ireneusz Iredynski made his début in literature as a Polish 'angry young man' in the late 1950s. He moved with great versatility from verse to stage plays, film-scripts and plays for radio. While some of the plays in this collection seem to present a bleak view of life, they show a gentler side of Iredynski. Here it is people's dreams rather than their worst nightmares that are explored. In these plays, situations are kept simple and the theatrical technique is spare and economical, but yet, the playwright demonstrates an unfailing theatrical flair and shows himself a master of dramatic tension and the final unexpected twist.

Tom Beckway is retired. In his younger years, he had a brief but extremely successful career in law enforcement. Because small-town police departments could not afford to pay their officers very well and because he had a young family, Tom made the decision to leave law enforcement.

Sounds simple, but Tom soon finds himself in the middle of a double murder and all kinds of small-town intrigue. With the knowledge that his estranged wife is on her way to Indiana for a surprise visit burning in the back of his mind, and with the help of his live-in brother-in-law, and despite the misadventures of his mean-as-a-snake cat, LC, Tom Beckway is determined to find the answer or solution.
