Full description for Gertrude (The Cry): AND Knowledge and a Girl (The Snow White Case)

  • Drama. Barker's recent work, now firmly part of the international repertoire, is characterized by an ever deepening investment in language and metaphor; a poet of the stage, his texts resonate at many levels of the European cultural past and illuminate its present.
