The Unfinished Harauld Hughes - Hardcover
by Richard Ayoade (Author)
Richard Ayoade's fictional quest to rescue Harauld
Hughes - the almost mythical mid-century playwright -
from obscurity.
The gifted filmmaker, corduroy activist and amateur dentist, Richard Ayoade, first chanced upon a copy of The Two-Hander Trilogy by Harauld Hughes in a second-hand bookshop. At first startled by his uncanny resemblance to the author's photo, he opened the volume and was electrified. Terse, aggressive, and elliptical, what was true of Ayoade was also true of Hughes's writing, which encompassed stage, screen, and some of the shortest poems ever published.
This is the story of the story of that quest.
