Gillian slovo, welcome to hardtalk. Thank you. Gillian, you have been writing for many decades, but your recent work, particularly your plays, have focused not so much on your own authorial voice, your imagination, they focused on real peoples real stories. I just wonder if youre getting sick of making things up. Im not, actually, because, you know, theres part of me that wants to go back to my desk to be on my own, to make stuff up, but ive really got a lot from working in the theatre and from the collaboration that comes, not only from the crew and the directors and the actors, but actually the collaboration that comes from the people ive interviewed.

This is a catalogue of devastating allegat ....
In the south of baghdad. In iraq, a war of choice, the us expended enormous amounts of blood and treasure and ended up opening the door to wider iranian influence, while causing the American Public to reject a role as the worlds policeman. And for those who yearn for that moment, now we see the consequences. Instead of a monopolar world or a two sided rivalry, like the old cold war, we have one where several large states contest for economic and strategic advantage, and where chaos is increasingly widespread. In ukraine, independent since the soviet collapse, they face an existential struggle. Inter state war has returned to europe. Hundreds of thousands have been killed or wounded. Russia animated by nationalism, rather than communism gambled on western indifference and weakness. Well, we havent been here long, but were getting a good idea about the constant rockets and defensive fire from the israeli iron dome system. In the mi ....
