This paper discusses the use of realistic, as well as fantastic, elements in the drama of Harold Pinter. It deals with a wide range of his work, from his first play until his most recent, and also attempts to place him within the context of modern theatrical tradition. The work makes extensive use of contemporary critical writing on Pinter, including e-lit, and analyses the way in which critical approaches to Pinter have altered throughout his career.
