First published in 1983, Harold Pinter is an original study into the work of one of Britain's foremost dramatists.

The book celebrates Pinter's elusiveness as a writer. It considers his position as a specifically contemporary writer of the post-modernist tradition, and explores his use of language as a sophisticated means of non-communication, acting as a smokescreen behind which his characters lie. The book presents the language games used by Pinter according to their strategic importance, beginning with his earlier works and suggesting a chronological progression. It also discusses Pinter's later developments, such as the screenplay for The French Lieutenant's Woman.
