Tom Stoppard is widely regarded as one of the leading contemporary
British playwrights, a writer who has earned an intriguing mix of both
critical and commercial success. Arcadia is considered by many critics
to be Stoppard's masterpiece, a work that weds his love for words and
ideas in his early career, with his emphasis on storytelling and
emotional engagement in his later career. With its engaging alteration
between past and present Arcadia offers a comedic and entertaining
exploration of chaos theory, entropy, the Second Law of
thermodynamics, iterated algorithms, fractals, and other concepts
culled from the realms of math and science.
