Two plays in one volume: "Mountain Language" - "extraordinarily economical and extraordinarily chilling"; and "Ashes to Ashes" - "dark, elegiac play, studded with brutally and swaggeringly funny jokes".

Mountain Language and Ashes to Ashes were presented as a double-bill at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in June 2001.

Acclaim for Mountain Language:

'Extraordinarily economical and extraordinarily chilling.' Sunday Telegraph

Ashes to Ashes:

'This dark, elegiac play, studded with brutally and swaggeringly funny jokes, is one of Pinter's most haunting works.' Sunday Times

'Ashes to Ashes is an extraordinarily powerful work: elusive, mesmeric, disturbing.' Guardian
