The Theatre and Films of Conor McPherson offers a comprehensive source of information about McPherson's life, career, and critical reception. It is more up to date than most of the existing books dedicated to McPherson, and by crossing the generic boundary between theatre and film, it allows us to perceive parallels and continuities that can open up new avenues for future scholarship. It is a faithful companion; and for those new to McPherson, it will probably be good company.
