Abstract
- According to the blurb from Time on the cover of The Shadow of the Hummingbird, Athol Fugard is “the greatest living playwright in the English-speaking world.” Indeed, Fugard does have an impressive oeuvre, acknowledged especially for his works like Nongogo (1959), Statements after an Arrest under the Immorality Act (1972), and My Children! My Africa! (1989) which sharply criticize the apartheid regime.
