An Inspector Calls, first produced in 1946 when society was undergoing sweeping transformations, has recently enjoyed an enormously successful revival. While holding its audience with the gripping tension of a detective thriller, it is also a philosophical play about social conscience and the crumbling of middle class values. Time and the Conways and I Have Been Here Before belong to Priestley's 'time'plays, in which he explores the idea of precognition and pits fate against free will. The Linden Tree also challenges preconceived ideas of history when Professor Linden comes into conflict with his family about how life should be lived after the war.

This is a letter from a son to a mother who cannot read. Written when the speaker, Little Dog, is in his late twenties, the letter unearths a family's history that began before he was born. It tells of Vietnam, of the lasting impact of war, and of his family's struggle to forge a new future. And it serves as a doorway into parts of Little Dog's life his mother has never known - episodes of bewilderment, fear and passion - all the while moving closer to an unforgettable revelation.

La prima volta che entra nella stanza in cui consumera i prossimi pasti, Rosa Sauer e affamata. "Da anni avevamo fame e paura", dice. Con lei ci sono altre nove donne di Gross-Partsch, un villaggio vicino alla Tana del Lupo, il quartier generale di Hitler nascosto nella foresta. È l'autunno del '43, Rosa e appena arrivata da Berlino per sfuggire ai bombardamenti ed e ospite dei suoceri mentre Gregor, suo marito, combatte sul fronte russo. Quando le SS ordinano: "Mangiate", davanti al piatto traboccante e la fame ad avere la meglio; subito dopo, pero, prevale la paura: le assaggiatrici devono restare un'ora sotto osservazione, affinche le guardie si accertino che il cibo da servire al Fuhrer non sia avvelenato. Nell'ambiente chiuso della mensa forzata, fra le giovani donne s'intrecciano alleanze, amicizie e rivalita sotterranee. Per le altre Rosa e la straniera: le e difficile ottenere benevolenza, eppure si sorprende a cercarla. Specialmente con Elfriede, la ragazza che si mostra piu ostile, la piu carismatica. Poi, nella primavera del '44, in caserma arriva il tenente Ziegler e instaura un clima di terrore. Mentre su tutti - come una sorta di divinita che non compare mai incombe il Fuhrer, fra Ziegler e Rosa si crea un legame inaudito.
