...account does this action imply that we are taking sides in the dispute. We are not trying to force the other papers to settle without full arbitration. Our mission is one of public service, and public service only. But we cannot hope to print as many as four million copies, and we ask those lucky New Yorkers who receive a copy to share it with their friends--even with total strangers.

But if Dillon's fury and hatred are not completely explained, they are convincingly dramatized; and we are let in on certain factors that help to account for them...

As in that memoir of another Irish Prisoner-Playwright, The Ballad of Reading Gaol, The Quare Fellow records the atmosphere, the emotions, the tensions of convicts and gaolers as execution nears. But, in Behan's play, as atmospheric pressure mounts, the need for outlets intensifies. Voices are raised, and fists; a half-brutal, half...
