Damaged Language contains four radio plays by Richard Nelson:
LANGUAGES SPOKEN HERE
Giles Cooper Award winner
a morally ambiguous comedy...an American in London thinks he's translating a novel by a penniless Polish emigre, only to find, after befriending and patronizing him, that the Pole has ditched his benefactor for another hack... True and funny as well.
Paul Ferris, The Observer
A neat, beautifully written, serious comedy about translation, exile and betrayal--one of the very best on Radio 3 last year.
Nigel Andrews, The Listener
A rare sort of treat...a very funny play, delicate in its touches, but sharp as a needle.
Gillian Reynolds, The Daily Telegraph
EATING WORDS
Giles Cooper Award winner
Totally enthralling... Richard Nelson is God's gift (or at least America's) to English radio drama.
Nigel Andrews, The Listener
A thoroughly absorbing account of two writers on a drunken tour of London.
Plays and Players
ADVICE TO EASTERN EUROPE
A masterly short play--a post-Cold War romance that is witty [and] technically bold--examines how one woman's Utopia may be another person's capitalist nightmare.
Quentin Curtis, The Independent on Sunday
THE AMERICAN WIFE
A reminder that Nelson is the sharpest observer around of the gulf separating Britain and America.
Michael Billington, The Guardian
