A propos du livre

Revue de presse

At once funny and piercingly painful... Raine writes with a marvellous mixture of wit and empathy... as moving as anything I have seen in the theatre this year. --Telegraph

Fiercely intelligent, caustically funny and emotionally wrenching. --Independent

Razor-sharp as well as utterly credible. --Evening Standard

There's so much going on in Tribes that it's almost overwhelming: intellect and sentiment, love and cruelty, witty zingers and biting put-downs. But in Nina Raine's dazzling play, too much is a good thing...Tribes is pitch-perfect. -- New York Post

In this provocative and original play, Raine keeps the ideas and the ironies coming until the final thrilling, paradoxical image. Raine's gift is for penetration; she makes her story mean more than the social problem it dramatizes. --New Yorker

Présentation de l'éditeur

The London and New York smash-hit drama.

Nina Raine's subtle and clever new play.

Billy's fiercely intelligent and proudly unconventional family are their own tiny empire, with their own private language, jokes and rules. You can be as rude as you like, as possessive as you like, as critical as you like. Arguments are an expression of love. After all, you'd do anything for each other wouldn't you? But Billy, who is deaf, is one of the few who actually listens. Meeting Sylvia makes him finally want to be heard; can he get a word in edgeways?
