5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, October 2, 2002

J. Reynolds "Ionesco" (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Fate of a Cockroach and Other Plays (Paperback)

Al-Hakim's plays are an unknown treasure-trove of simplistic grandeur to the English reading audience. I wish not to riddle his mastery with an amateur, haphazard review. All in all, however, everyone should read or see his plays for the spectacular perfection of the art of subtle irony and quiet sardonic contemplative wit.
