He is the author of many plays, the most famous of which have been Night Must Fall and The Corn is Green, a semi-autobiographical piece about the education of a Welsh boy. He has also written two volumes of autobiography, George and Emlyn. EXCERPT: "I keep remindin' myself", Superintendent Talbot said to me, "that this isn't a tale--that it's been happening, as you might say, in our midst. Even as a hardened copper, you just rub your eyes." REVIEWS: "Excellent...Emlyn Williams has an obsessive interest in the psychology of murder only equalled by his admiration for the detection of it by the arm of justice."--Guardian. "One of the peculiar features of the murders was the cold-blooded and calculated nature of the cruelty...one feels there is a gap or gulf between them and oneself which cannot be crossed. Emlyn Williams manages to throw a bridge over it...serious and valuable."--The Observer. "The book is cleverly constructed...the two participants come vividly to life...the chemistry of the murder depends on two ingredients...in his analysis of this chemical reaction Emlyn Williams rightly stresses the sexual element, in particular the constant tendency of the dominant partner to indulge in increasingly outrageous behaviour as a form of erotic display. --Spectator. "An appalling subject, an overpowering book"--Sunday Express. "What struck terror in the Moors Murders case was its incomprehensibility. What could have induced Ian Brady and Myra Hindley to have murdered 'for kicks'...the victims were utter strangers; in each case there was an indication of sexual indignity before the murder… Perhaps the greatest value of this book is that it shows us that the human monsters Brady and Hindley were not one and the same, but two different kinds of monster..."--The Times Literary Supplement.
