PAX is a bold and disturbing double-take on the history we think we know. In four very different pieces - Al Haqq, Driving der Fuhrer, Rudi and Pax Germanica - Carl Tighe takes a long cool look at post-war Europe. He questions, among other things, the Allied victory over Hitler and the smug assumptions of post-war western democracy.

The four variations on a theme combine a freewheeling imagination and spikey cynicism. As certainty slips away, prepare to be entertained and intrigued.
