Acerca del autor

Harold Pinter was born in the London borough of Hackney in 1930. During World War II, Pinter and his family escaped the Blitzkrieg by moving to Cornwall and Reading, which had a profound impact on him. In 1948 Pinter entered the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, but after two years he dropped out.

The Room, Pinter's first play, was written in 1957 and was performed as a student production and the University of Bristol. Pinter's second play, and one of his best known, The Birthday Party (1957), was initially ill-received by the critics, but with The Caretaker (1960) Pinter secured his theatrical status.

Some of Pinter's most celebrated theatrical works include Landscape (1968), The Homecoming (1964), Betrayal (1978), and The Go-Between (1980). In 2005, the Swedish Academy awarded Pinter the Nobel Prize in Literature stating that "in his plays [he] uncovers the precipice under everyday prattle and forces entry into oppression's closed rooms."
