The Loss of the Golden Silence
The Loss of the Golden Silence is a two-person play about domestic tension by Alasdair Gray,[1] first performed at the Pool Lunch Hour Theatre, Edinburgh in 1973,[2] and later broadcast on radio by the Scottish BBC in 1974, under producer Stewart Conn.[3][4] It is of particular interest to readers of Lanark because part of the dialogue expands on Gray's notion of the Epic, as discussed by Nastler in the novel's epilogue.[5] Gray further adapted the play into a short story, published by Bloomsbury in the collection Ten Tales Tall and True in 1993.[6]
