Over de Auteur

English playwright, poet, and political activist Harold Pinter was born on October 10, 1930, in London's East End. From childhood he was interested in literature and acting. He studied at both the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts and the Central School of Speech and Drama. Pinter was a Nobel toon meer Prize-winning English playwright and screenwriter. One of the most influential modern British dramatists, his writing career spanned more than 50 years. His best-known plays include The Birthday Party (1957), The Homecoming (1964), and Betrayal (1978), each of which he adapted to film. Pinter published his first poems in 1950. He worked as a bit-part actor in a BBC Radio program and also toured with a Shakespearean troupe. Pinter has written over 30 plays, achieving great success internationally. He has also directed several of his dramas. Pinter was married to actress Vivien Merchant from 1956 to 1980, before wedding biographer Lady Antonia Fraser. From his first marriage he has a son who is a writer and musician. Pinter has won numerous prestigious literary prizes in poetry and theatre. He was awarded the Hermann Kesten Medallion for outstanding commitment on behalf of persecuted and imprisoned writers. He has been granted honorary degrees at universities in England, Scotland, the United States, Bulgaria, Ireland, Italy, and Greece. In 2005, Pinter received the Nobel Prize for Literature. He died from cancer on December 24, 2008 at the age of 78. (Bowker Author Biography) toon minder

De huisbewaarder en andere stukken door Harold Pinter

Dit was een harde noot om te kraken. Mijn eerste lectuur zocht naar verhalen en verhaallijnen, en dan loop je bij Pinter onvermijdelijk vast. Via wat zijdelingse lectuur leerde ik te kijken naar de communicatie (of het gebrek er aan), de psychologie en de machtsverhoudingen tussen de personages, en dan ontdek je bij Pinter een onwaarschijnlijk, maar toch realistisch universum. Het is vooral wat er gezegd wordt, de manier waarop, de timing, de pauzes... die het hem doen. 'Het verjaardagsfeest' vond ik nog wat aarzelend, iets te Kafkaïaans, maar 'De huisbewaarder' en vooral 'De thuiskomst' zijin terecht klassiekers.… (meer)
