On one level, An Inspector Calls is a whodunit. But much more importantly it is a morality play one in which its author sets out to expose what he sees as the arrogance and indifference of Britains ruling class. Though written in 1944, it continues to fascinate critics and audiences alike, with one contemporary theatre director describing it as a a call to arms. So just how good a play is it, asks David Hughes in this short guide, and just how relevant is it to the world we live in today?

What I love about these is that theyre small & unintimidating, so they make the potentially intimidating accessible --Helena Bonham Carter
The Connell Guides are brief, attractive, erudite, and to the point. Bravo! --Sir Tom Stoppard
Completely brilliant. I wish I were young again with these by my side. Its like being in a room with marvellous tutors. You cant really afford to be without them, and they are a joy to read. --Joanna Lumley
