About the author
Martin Crimp
58 books46 followersMartin Andrew Crimp (born 14 February 1956 in Dartford, Kent) is a British playwright.
Crimp is sometimes described as a practitioner of the "in-yer-face" school of contemporary British drama, although he rejects the label. He is notable for the astringency of his dialogue, a tone of emotional detachment, a bleak view of human relationships – none of his characters experience love or joy – and latterly, a concern for theatrical form and language rather than an interest in narrative.
