Sam Shepard gas been described by the New Yorker as 'one of the most original, prolific and gifted dramatists at work today'. Here are seven of his finest plays: Buried Child, Curse of the Starving Class, The Tooth of Crime, La Turista, Savage Love, Tongues and True West. The collection is introduced by Richard Gilman, who provides a fascinating profile of the author and places the plays firmly in the context of contemporary American drama. 'He is the greatest US playwright of his generation and since 1964 he has mapped out a huge mythic territory . . . like Whitman, his is vast and contains multitudes, his plays soar over the empty tracts of the Midwest, celebrate the space, energy and naive optimism of the new-found lands.'
