An interesting subject. Two books may help:
Aleks SierzĀ“s excellent book In-Yer-Face Theatre has a very good chapter on Sarah Kane for example āan example of her insight [into male psychology] is the way Ian manages to control Cate by making her feel guiltyā
Heidi Stephenson and Natasha LangridgeĀ“s Rage and Reason has a good interview with Sarah Kane āā¦IĀ“m not writing about sexual politics. The problems IĀ“m addressing are the ones we have as human beingsā.
Some of the links (on the links page) may help, but few of them go into any depth.
If you are looking for comparisons, what about Caryl ChurchillĀ“s work, especially Cloud Nine āChurchillĀ“s overt examination of Sexual Politics as a metaphor for social criticism, gender exploration, and even race relations asks audiences to decipher meaning from a play which denies conventional narrative and traditional character developmentā (there is a good site source of information on Churchill here http://virtual.clemson.edu/groups/dial/lap101/churchil.htm )
Hope this helps. Does anyone know of other articles or links that may help Sarah?
