David Bryer - Literary Translation
Of Corneille's 'The Cid':
"What also comes with 'The Cid' is new writing for the theatre rather than just translation by David Bryer - a stunning and original work which speaks to us in a modern British voice as an equivalent, displaced allegory on the original - in which neither the feeling nor complexity of that original is lost but rather reborn" - Oxford Times - 7/11/86
