Sam Shepard has been described by the New Yorker as 'one of the most original, prolific and gifted dramatists at work today'. Here are seven of his finest plays, including True West and the Pulizter Prize-winning Buried Child.True West: 'A mythic study of fraternal division.What makes the play so rich is Shepard's profound understanding of the spiritual incompleteness of each brother and, by extension, of the American experience.' GuardianBuried Child: The play has a 'rhythmic sense of speech and imagery that finds the dark, scary poetry behind every domestic arrangement.a startlingly visceral experience.it operates successfully on so many levels that you get dizzy watching it.' New York Times
