Halcyon Days (NHB Modern Plays) - Softcover

"An exquisitely devastating piece of writing." Critics' Choice, Time Out London on MOMENT 'the whole play comes over like a shattering Greek tragedy, served up with cups of tea and slices of quiche' Telegraph on MOMENT

Sean sits alone in a nursing-home conservatory, abandoned to his memories when in storms Patricia, a feisty woman with a zest for life and handsome men in wheelchairs. A wary intimacy soon develops between the two, an unforeseen relationship by turns charming and combative, tender and funny. From the writer of the critically acclaimed plays MOMENT and BOGBOY comes HALCYON DAY - infused with Deirdre Kinahan's hallmark wry humour and humanity. A celebration of the human spirit and our quest for meaning in even the most seemingly hopeless circumstance.
