An Inspector Calls (Heinemann Plays For 14-16+)

Product Information

Eva is just a random chick - imagine if things were going against you because you "dallied" with the a powerful/wealthy family/ corporate/ entity - well if there are no laws protecting you - you are screwed. Dennoch scheint mit seiner Person etwas nicht zu stimmen, was in der Mitte und vor allem am Ende des Buches deutlicher wird. Inspektor Gul (dobro, pre sedamdesetak godina ovo ime nije bilo toliko prozirno ni, da se ne lažemo, smešno) primorava okupljene bogataše da se suoče sa vlastitim udelom krivice u samoubistvu nesrećne devojke.

Birling is her husband's social superior; he refers to himself as a "hard-headed practical man of business".The Heinemann Plays series offers contemporary drama and classic plays in durable classroom editions. When Priestley dropped the line ‘in fire and blood and anguish’, you thought he was referring to Russian Revolution 2. However it is firmly rooted in the English society life of the time, and thus is now considered to be a classic of "drawing room" theatre.

During the Second World War Priestley became a popular and influential broadcaster with his famous Postscripts that followed the nine o'clock news BBC Radio on Sunday evenings. At first the family denies knowing the woman, but as the story unravels we realize that is not the case.I hate almost all of the characters, but that is because of the characteristics that Priestly wants to portray, so over all it’s a wonderful play, that is very cleverly written! Its attraction is that it is not merely a play with a social conscience, but also with intriguing, possibly supernatural and ambiguous events.

Set in 1912, Arthur Birling, a wealthy factory owner, is celebrating his daughter's engagement to the son of another industrialist. And I tell you that the time will soon come when if men do not learn that lesson, then they will be taught it in fire and blood and anguish.The play sits quite well with several of the author's other plays, often referred to as his "Time" plays, of which the most famous are "Dangerous Corner", "Time and the Conways" and "I Have Been Here Before". The only reason I read it in the first place is because of schools and I never like any school books because they're always boring. Only when we encounter the conversation again can we understand its depth, and how cleverly it is constructed.
