Partially modeled on Gurney’s own family, the plays’ erudite dialogue perfectly reflects the mixture of satire, affection, and sympathy characteristic of Gurney’s work. The results have been described by critics as “delicious” and “delectable.”</font></font></div><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><font face="Arial" size="5" style="font: 16.0px Arial"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"> </font></font></p><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; line-height: 21px; "><font face="Arial" size="5" style="font: 16.0px Arial"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"> A.R.
