The Good Woman of Setzuan | Bertolt Brecht

1 post | 16 read | 1 to read

"The Good Woman of Setzuan, written during Brecht's exile and set in pre-Communist China, is a parable of a young woman torn between obligation and reality, between love and practicality, and between her own needs and those of her friends and neighbors." "Eric Bentley provides here a reliable English version of one of Brecht's most popular plays. This performance-friendly translation is often used in the theater." "Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956) is one of Germany's best-known playwrights. His social critiques, including The Caucasian Chalk Circle, Mother Courage and Her Children, and The Threepenny Opera, resonate with modern audiences and continue to be frequently performed."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The Good Woman of Setzuan | Bertolt Brecht

I haven't read The Good Woman of Setzuan in a number of years, but it was the first one that came to mind for #titlewithgood. Side note- I'm pretty sure I stole this copy from my high school classroom. Or "forgot to return it." I guess I'm a little more Shui Ta than Shen Te. #aprilbookshowers #brecht
