The Lieutenant of Inishmore (Student Editions)
The Lieutenant of Inishmore - Student Editions Author:Martin McDonagh Martin McDonagh's hilariously gruesome play about political terrorism in rural Ireland depicts an absurd world in which killing, bombing, and torturing are just jobs, and sentimentality is reserved for animals. Padraic, a maverick lieutenant refused entry to the IRA for being "too mad," rushes back to Inishmore upon hearing the news that "his on... more »ly friend in the world," wee Thomas the Cat, is "poorly." Finding that his cat has had his brains blown out, he goes in search of justice for his murdered friend. This Methuen Student Edition features both the play and an extensive commentary and study aids ideal for both students and teachers.« less
