    Tento autor skúma zložitosť ľudskej povahy a morálne dilemy. Jeho diela, často s historickým pozadím, vynikajú prenikavým vhľadom do motivácií postáv a ich vnútorných konfliktov. Prostredníctvom svojho majstrovského jazyka a starostlivo skonštruovaných zápletiek vtiahne čitateľov do svetov, kde sa stretáva osobné presvedčenie s vonkajšími tlakmi. Jeho dramatické dielo, ktoré uspelo aj v hlavných divadelných štvrtiach, svedčí o jeho schopnosti zachytiť univerzálne pravdy o ľudskej skúsenosti.
