Hit the link for some photos reflecting on the life and work of Pinter, who once said of his play exploring reality, mental illness, and power, “As far as I'm concerned, 'The Caretaker' is funny, up to a point. Beyond that point, it ceases to be funny, and it was because of that point that I wrote it.”

A great loss to the literary world. He had a cool career & now gone-utterly absurd . Studied some of his pieces, saw some of them staged, saw couple of films based on his screenplays.
And as a tribute to him:(one of our fav statement by him)
Quote:I don't intend to simply go away and write my plays and be a good boy. I intend to remain an independent and political intelligence in my own right.
