Educating Rita Modern Classics Willy Russell 9780413767905 Books

This version of Educating Rita is quite extensive. My wife and I saw the play recently and I wanted to review some of the dialogue to get more from it. This edition contains all the dialogue, stage directions, etc that you'd expect plus a lot of background information on the playwright. Good value and good information.

Educating Rita Modern Classics Willy Russell 9780413767905 Books Reviews

This cheerful little story is a modern day version of Shaw's 'Pygmalion'. Originally it was a play.

Rita, a Liverpool lady in a working-class area, is determined to make something of herself and find out more about English literature. She enrols as a mature student and her tutor, a habitual drinker who's washed up, finds her refreshingly interesting compared to the usual kids in his lectures.

Rita's husband isn't sold on this new fancy stuff, and wants her to start having babies like all the other women. The tutor enjoys awakening Rita's enquiring mind to all the world of poetry, plays and prose. His enjoyment is spoiled when he realises that Rita has grown past the lectures he gives and can find out more from summer schools and her own classmates. The story is not a complete romance but ends on a note of change.

This was beautifully filmed in Dublin, with Trinity College and the rooms of the Literary and Historical Society featuring as well as night spots around the city.
Easily forgettable. Spoiler alert This book is irreverant as Dude Where's My Car? But is reading instead of watching.
Great read
Such a good play! Highly recommended! If you haven't seen the movie, DO!
I got the book and was surprised to see a hole in the front that went through the hard bound cover and a good portion of the book. While it doesn't obstruct any of the text, (and I found it somewhat humorous that there was a mysterious hole), that was not mentioned in the description of the product.
So funny and touching. Great roles. Love this play.
Great edition for anyone studying the book, and just the text its self, though it is an update from the old version. It's slightly different to the original text to relieve it of a lot of its 80's links. Gives a basic understanding of all the literary/other references in there with one click, in case you ARE Rita, and not Frank.
