Tip of the Tongue: Reflections on Language and Meaning Description
Tip of the Tongue: Reflections on Language and Meaning
A wise, playful and deeply personal new book by legendary
theatre-maker Peter Brook, described by the Independent as 'our
greatest living theatre director'. In Tip of the Tongue, Peter
Brook takes a charming, playful and wise look at topics such as the
subtle yet telling differences between French and English, and the
many levels on which we can appreciate the works of Shakespeare.
Brook also revisits his seminal concept of the 'empty space',
considering how theatre - and the world - have changed over the
span of his long and distinguished career., Threaded throughout
with intimate and revealing stories from Brook's own life, Tip of
the Tongue is a short but sparkling gift from one of the greatest
artists of our time. 'Exquisite...enthralling...This short, modest
and brilliant book does more than many more grandiose tomes to
renew the reader's fascination with the plays, and the
theatre-goer's wonder at the extraordinary and diverse sensations
locked up inside the First Folio. It should be required reading at
all universities and drama clubs.' Guardian on The Quality of
Mercy
