Can you hear me at the back?

More about the book

Brian Clark's Can You Hear Me At The Back? (19799 is a play about Philip Turner, an architect and town planner, who looks critically at the New Town which he began to design with so much idealism fifteen years ago. He calls it a "Legoland" and a new "Tower of Babel". Turner's dream has turned into a nightmare for himself and others. His doctor wife has to deal daily with patients suffering from the mental strain and stress of living in her husband's high-rise developments. Their son, a sixth-former studying for "A" levels, is trying to put the world to rights in his own way. Clark sees the play as a plea for greater sensitivity to other people and to our environment
