De Nederlandse schrijfster Maria Dermoût werd in 1888 geboren op Midden-Java. In 1933 verliet zij het voormalige Nederlands-Indië en vestigde zich in Nederland, waar zij tot aan haar dood leefde en werkte. Na haar repatriëring keerde zij nooit terug naar 'Indië', het latere Indonesië. Toch bleef haar werk doordrenkt van de sfeer van haar geboorteland, net omdat het ontstond vanuit een gevoel van ontheemding. De lotgevallen van in Nederlands-Indië geboren en/of verblijvende Nederlanders , vormden het centrale thema van haar oeuvre. Met haar boek 'De tienduizend dingen' leverde zij één van de hoogtepunten van de Nederlands-Indische en Nederlandse literatuur af. In 1958 en de daaropvolgende jaren verschenen wereldwijd vertalingen en het boek voerde wekenlang de bestsellerlijsten aan in Amerika. Kester Freriks reisde voor deze biografie door het hedendaagse Indonesië op zoek naar sporen van het leven en het werk van Maria Dermoût. Hij kon tijdens het bijeensprokkelen van biografische gegevens de hand leggen op nooit eerder gebruikte documenten, waaronder het dagboek dat de schrijfster de laatste jaren van haar leven bijhield.

This Companion, first published in 2000, addresses the work of women playwrights in Britain throughout the twentieth century. The chapters explore the historical and theatrical contexts in which women have written for the theatre and examine the work of individual playwrights. A chronological section on playwriting from the 1920s to the 1970s is followed by chapters which raise issues of nationality and identity. Later sections question accepted notions of the canon and include chapters on non-mainstream writing, including black and lesbian performance. Each section is introduced by the editors, who provide a narrative overview of a century of women's drama and a thorough chronology of playwriting, set in political context. The collection includes essays on the individual writers Caryl Churchill, Sarah Daniels, Pam Gems and Timberlake Wertenbaker as well as extensive documentation of contemporary playwriting in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, including figures such as Liz Lochhead and Anne Devlin.
