Play Resumed: A Journal
D.J. Enright (Estate)
Fully equal to its successful predecessor, Interplay: a Kind of Commonplace Book, this volume has the same breadth, the same wide range of reference, the same sharp eye for the symptomatic incident, the same revealing pronouncements. It’s very funny, very serious, notable not only for its good sense, but its wisdom. The fruit of exceptionally wide reading, the quotations in Play Resumed constitute a fine miniature anthology. From religion to soap opera, computers to childhood, Enright observes keenly, sardonically, always sympathetically.
