More about the book

Set in the fictional African nation of Kambawe, the play explores the clash between a Free Press and working-class solidarity amid a Soviet-backed revolution. Characters like Ruth, her husband Geoffrey Carson, veteran reporter Dick Wagner, and idealistic journalist Jacob Milne each present their perspectives as the political turmoil unfolds. With a blend of humor and provocation, it delves into themes of exploitation, corruption, journalistic ethics, and marital infidelity, showcasing a more traditional style compared to Stoppard's typical works.
