    Novelist, satirist, poet, photographer, painter, alchemist, and hellraiser - August Strindberg was all these, yet was principally known as the mad inventor of modern theatre, who led playwriting out of the polite drawing room into the snakepit of psychological warfare. Shortlisted for 2012's Samuel Johnson Prize, Sue Prideaux's biography describes the eventful life of one of the great literary figures. Strindberg's story is condensed into a gripping and highly readable narrative that both illuminates his work and restores humour and humanity to a man often shrugged off as too difficult. Best known for his play Miss Julie, Strindberg wrote sixty other plays, three books of poetry, eighteen novels, and nine autobiographies.
