| 总结: | Pinter wrote The Dwarfs in the early 1950s. Set largely in Hackney, it is about competitive male friendship: the dark rivalry between a young actor called Mark and an office worker named Pete is exposed when the former sleeps with the latter's girlfriend, Virginia. Written largely in fast-paced dialogue full of cockney patter, the novel shows a born dramatist at work. What is puzzling, however, is that Pinter's novel, like Stoppard's, remains largely unread - even by students who analyse the plays to the point of suffocation.
