Michael Billington's own selection from 20 years of reviewing for "The Guardian" - from 1971, with Ralph Richardson in John Osborne's "West of Suez" and Olivier in "Long Day's Journey into Night", through two decades of theatrical events such as Ken Dodd, "Amadeus" and Peter Hall's National, up to "Carmen Jones" and the new David Hare of 1991. Chronologically arranged with a 5000-word introduction on the critic's role, his reviews and "think pieces" add up to an authoritative, yet personal history of the theatre of our generation.
