Angels in America

A magnificent, two-part epic drama set during the Reagan years in America - now recognised as one of the greatest plays of the twentieth century. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize Winner of the Evening Standard Best Play Award This edition contains both plays, Part One: Millennium Approaches, and Part Two: Perestroika. 'the finest drama of our time, speaking to us of an entire era of life and death as no other play within memory. In its sweep and imagination, it defines the collapse of a moral universe during the Reagan years in an unforgettable way, transcending its specific time in the richness of its portrait of an America Lost, perhaps to be regained... It's a pretty funny play, too. How we still need it! It ranks as nothing less than one of the greatest plays of the twentieth century' John Heilpern, New York Observer Angels in America is a SET TEXT for English Literature A-Level (AQA)
