The Examination

Harold Pinter

Prose (fiction)

English

A narrator speaks of his examination of a character named Kullus, only to find the tables turned on him. The character of Kullus appears in two other Pinter works; his 1949 short prose dialogue 'Kullus' and his 1954 poem 'The Task'. The scenario of all three adumbrate works such as The Basement, but also act as a template for Pinter's numerous characters who invade and control a room.
