Look Back in Anger was first performed in Britain at the Royal Court Theatre on 8 May 1956: it immediately became the outstanding dramatic success. Since then John Osborne gained worldwide attention as one of the most provocative and gifted dramatists writing in English in the later – half of the 20th century. It is a genuine drama about real events and people. In fact, with Osbornes Look Back in Anger officially began a new Movement in the British drama. The hero of the play, Jimmy Porter, who hails from the working class, is provided with an intellect which only shows him that everything that might have justified pride in the old England (its opportunity, adventure, material well-being, etc.) has disappeared without being replaced by anything worthwhile. That is why this angry young man fumes, rages, nags at a world which he finds as out of joint. Undoubtedly, Look Back in Anger, is painful in its accuracy and immediacy. The present book has brought to the surface the hidden contours of the thematic layers as we delve deep into the text and lucidly examine its socio-human nuances.
