Time and The Rose Garden: Encountering The Magical In The Life And Works Of J.B. Priestley (Paperback) by Anthony Peake £2 OFF RRP

£2 OFF RRP

Often dismissed as an outdated playwright rooted in a pre-war, provincial world, J. B. Priestley has long been overlooked by modern audiences. In Time and the Rose Garden, acclaimed author Anthony Peake challenges this perception, offering a compelling re-evaluation of Priestley’s plays and novels.

Peake reveals Priestley as a remarkably forward-thinking writer, whose ideas on time, consciousness, and mortality were far ahead of their era. He draws striking connections between Priestley’s work and themes later explored in popular films such as The Matrix, Vanilla Sky, Déjà Vu, Sliding Doors, and The Butterfly Effect.

Reframing Priestley as a visionary thinker, this book invites readers to rediscover his work and recognise its lasting relevance in today’s cultural landscape.
