Description
This second volume of Felix Mitterer's plays in English translation offers further evidence of this dramatist's powerful artistry. A mythological Wild Woman changes the lives of five woodcutters, exposing their loneliness and desperation. Home reiterates the dictum that "you can't go home again," especially where prejudice, brutality, and hatred reside. An historical drama based on actual court records, Children of the Devil depicts institutional superstition and cruelty as perpetuated upon the most vulnerable members of society, its children. One Everyman is a modern version of the traditional medieval morality play, complete with a Devil from Wall Street, while the Biblical analogy, Abraham, concerns the scourge of AIDS - but even more, the love between a father and his son.
