About the Book
Look Back in Anger by John Osborne is a groundbreaking play that forever changed the landscape of English theatre upon its release in 1956. The play’s portrayal of post-war youth, its rebellion, frustration, and search for meaning in a turbulent world, marked a significant shift in the dramatic arts.
Through the character of Jimmy Porter, Osborne vividly expresses the angst and defiance of the "angry young man" generation, capturing their rejection of "official" attitudes and their quest for something more meaningful. The play’s surrealist humour, raw emotional depth, and unflinching critique of society made it a defining work of its time.
Osborne’s Look Back in Anger remains one of the most influential plays in British theatre, inspiring generations of playwrights and challenging the conventions of stage drama. It marked the beginning of a revolution in theatre, expressing the disillusionment of the post-war British youth and introducing a new voice in drama.
