Abstract:
This review looks positively on David Krasner's expansive and in-depth A History of Modern Drama: Volume II: 1960–2000. Krasner's book is important for the ways in which he eschews the debate on where modern drama ends and contemporary drama begins. Instead, he persuasively categorizes dramatic eras according to the differing techniques found in modernism and postmodernism.
