| Summary/Abstract |
Mahesh Dattani is the first Indian playwright writing in English to be awarded the Sahitya Akademi award. His plays bring Indian drama into the present day in their themes - sexuality, religious tension and gender issues while still focusing on human relationships and personal and moral choices which are the classic concerns of world drama. The eight plays featured in this volume, widely varied in thematic and stylistic content, are a tribute to the dramatic vision and skill of a man who has transformed the face of urban theatre in India.
