ReviewsPraise for The Real Inspector Hound and Other Plays : " The Real Inspector Hound is a comedy of satire of high and delightful quality, and great fun . . . The action is fast, continuous, and extremely funny."-- New York Post "[ After Magritte is] a surrealist comedy in detective form . . . The play shows that Stoppard is as amusing and clever as always."-- CBS "When it comes to Dirty Linen , there are no national boundaries. It is a tidal basin of laughter."-- New York Times " New-Found-Land takes over, as architecturally sound as the introduction of a Beethoven scherzo."-- Daily News "The incorrigibly playful Stoppard has never been more serious than in this most playful of his works [ Dogg's Hamlet and Cahoot's Macbeth ]. Like George Orwell, Stoppard knows that language and liberty are intertwined: when language is perverted, corrupted, or forcibly repressed, so is liberty."-- Newsweek
