Miss Julie

"As all the great playwrights since the Greeks have known, class and gender roles remain the two fundamental determinants of the social fabric of any culture - even one, like our own, in which the boundaries of those identities have become fluid, situational and transitory." "David French's adaptation of August Strindberg's disturbing drama of the affair between the daughter of a count and the count's man-servant has an eerie, contemporary feel about it. French has sharpened the dynamics of the original conflict of desire, anger, jealousy, dominance, submission and deceit while remaining true to the historical background. his riveting version of Miss Julie brings to the foreground the conflicts of identity and faith that lead to the rending of social norms and conventions."--BOOK JACKET.
