Elizabeth Gordon Quinn (Nick Hern Books)

“You expect that a play set in the Glasgow rent strike of 1915 will be a model of dour social realism, but [the play] confounds all expectations. The result is both startling and provocative.”—Guardian
 
Elizabeth Gordon Quinn battles to keep her dignity as she is faced with squalor, poverty, rising rent, and a son who is wanted for desertion from his regiment.
