«Enter a Free Man» is a play by Tom Stoppard, published by Faber & Faber in paperback (85 pages, in English).
George Riley, a dreamer inventor, tries to escape mediocrity by taking refuge in his imagination: every Saturday he announces at his local pub that he has left home for good. Stoppard combines comedy and drama to portray self-deception and the gap between the protagonist's fantasies and his family environment.
The play was originally published in 1968.
Aimed at a general and university audience with an interest in theatre and the work of Tom Stoppard.
