The Cambridge Companion to Caryl Churchill

Elaine Aston is Professor of Contemporary Performance at Lancaster University. Elin Diamond is Professor of English and Comparative Literature at Rutgers University.

'This is a much-needed and long-awaited addition to the Cambridge Companion series … The volume has been conceptualized and shaped with great care, so it will be of use to a broad range of readers and researchers … The editors have successfully composed a nonlinear, non-chronological volume in order to echo the non-linearity of so much of Churchill's work.' Maggie B. Gale, New Theatre Quarterly
