A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

'a smart, prickly and rewarding view of sexual and emotional confusion... The writing has a wounding authenticity.' --Henry Hitchings, Evening Standard (London), 19.11.09

'a sharp, witty study of a man helplessly torn between his longtime male partner and a loving woman. Barlett's theme, in fact, is less tortured bisexuality than the paralysing indecision that stems from not knowing who one really is.' --Michael Billington, Guardian, 18.11.09

'Terse, bold, blunt, emblematic of masculinity and, above all, sex, the word "cock" is also a British slang abbreviation for "cock and bull story", as in a succession of lies. Part of the excitement of Mike Bartlett's riveting new play is that it delivers on every one of those connotations.' --David Benedict, Variety, 19.11.09
