Time and The Rose Garden: Encountering The Magical In The Life And Works Of J.B. Priestley
by Anthony Peake
J.B. Priestley is considered by many to be an old-fashioned playwright whose work is locked in a pre-war world of provincialism and whose ideas are way past their sell-by date.
In Time and the Rose Garden, internationally recognized author Anthony Peake reassesses the plays and novels of this fascinating writer.
In doing so, Peake argues that Priestley should be recognized as one of the most prescient of all middle century playwrights and that his ideas on time, consciousness and mortality can be found in hugely popular blockbusters such as The Matrix, Vanilla Sky, Deja Vu, Sliding Doors, Butterfly Effect and many others.
