The book 'Peace and Violence in Harold Pinter's Plays- Part - I' explores two contradictory terms 'Peace' and 'Violence' are closely associated with life whether it is personal or social. The concepts in this postmodern time of political violence are appropriate to think upon. Harold Pinter was known to the world for his 'Absurd Theatre' and who could set a different place for himself in this world of anxiety and suppression. His contribution to absurd theatre gave a solid message of peace to the world. His indirect attack on foreign policies suggests his quest for peace and humanity. The plays like The Birthday Party, The Homecoming, Old Times and The Caretaker are satirical in tone and a unique epitome of his hate for brutal game of violence.The book which introduces the contradictory concepts 'Peace' and 'Violence' has been significantly focused on relevance of these concepts to literature and society by the authors. Understanding Pinter's violence in the plays and silence of characters mean experiencing realistic picture of physical violence and urge for betterment of human being.
