About This Item

Harmondsworth, England: Penguin. Paperback. Crease to corner front cover. Introduced by Martin Esslin. The four plays in this volume belong to the years of The Tin Drum and Cat and Mouse. In his introduction Martin Esslin writes that they 'are essentially images seen with the eyes of a painter who is so obsessed with his images that they also seek expression as poetic metaphors; a lyrical poet so eager to see his metaphors come to life that he was compelled to write for the stage'. Flood and Onkel, Onkel can be seen as fables of post-war Germany; Only Ten Minutes to Buffalo mocks the stationary driver who thinks he is advancing at top speed; and The Wicked Cooks is an exuberant allegory which the Observer called 'false fantasy, mock history, a scaring, comic and thoroughly political play, a kind of tick with echoes'. 217 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.). . Very Good. Soft cover. 1st Penguin Edition. 1972.
