I Knock at the door
Pictures in the hallway
Drums under the window
Inishfallen fare thee well
Rose and crown
Sunset and evening star
I had read the volumes with deep interest. O'Casey's own life was full of incident, and the people he had associated with – Shaw, Yeats, Lady Gregory, and the men of Easter, 1916 – were in their different ways heroic. The work also struck me as a new type of writing, fiction-like in its narrative technique, but freer in movement, allowing easy transition from recollection to reflection and back again, in a prose that is remarkable for its mixture of parody, invective, lyricism and a kind of stream-of-consciousness reverie quite reminiscent of Joyce.

4 1985 Wang Zuoliang : Sean O'Casey.
I found O'Casey's early Dublin tragi-comedies fascinating. I was also attracted by his later work, particularly The star turns red and Red roses for me. It was clear that from Within the gates on, O'Casey , the restless spirit that he was, was looking for a new, fresh way of writing significant drama. He didn't want to repeat his early successes, nor could he reconcile himself to the sort of fashionable, 'realistic' drama then being turned out by men like Noel Coward. Inevitably, he landed on poetic drama. He wanted to see in it all the richness, all the glitter and colour, of life, including man's noble fight for a better society. Also, he would write this kind of poetic drama in a resonant, sinewy prose, though he would not rule out – indeed he often resorted to – bursts of poetry at the critical moments. He did not always succeed in putting his idea to work, but when he did, as in Red roses for me, he did magnificently.
