About the author

Mark Ravenhill

Ravenhill's Shopping and Fucking became the defining in-yer-face drama of the 1990s British theater, using pornographic imagery and consumptive nihilism to diagnose a generation raised on market values. He is the most discussed British playwright of his generation after Kane.
