Description:

McPherson's four most recent plays in one volume: "The Weir", "Dublin Carol", "Port Authority" and "Come on Over".

Synopsis:

One of the most successful plays of recent years, it ran for two years in the West End and transferred to Broadway and toured the UK. In a bar in a remote part of Ireland, the local lads are swapping spooky stories to impress a young woman from Dublin newly moved into the area...'A spellbinder that transfixes you...No praise in fact is too high' Guardian; Dublin Carol; On Christmas Eve, a Dublin undertaker is visited by his estranged daughter who wants him to face up to the past. 'McPherson writes like a dream...The play works an ingenious spell' Daily Mail; Port Authority; Three interwoven lives: a boy leaves home for the first time; a man starts a job for which is unqualified; a pensioner is sent a mysterious package...'Overwhelmingly poignant...desolate, searing eloquence' Evening Standard; Come On Over; A Jesuit priest, sent to investigate a 'miracle' in his home town, reencounters the woman who loved him thirty years before.
