Description
At the heart of this second volume of Harold Pinter's collected work is The Caretaker, the play with which he had his first major success. The obsessive caretaker, Davies, is a classic comic creation and his uneasy relationship with the enigmatic Aston and Mick a landmark in twentieth-century drama.
