5.0 out of 5 stars
A classic anthology of literature, charged with emotion,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Poetry and Prose: Bertolt Brecht (German Library) (Paperback)
Bertolt Brecht: Poetry And Prose is an anthology primarily of poetry, but also offering the prose works "Socrates Wounded" and "The Unseemly Old Lady" by Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956), which reveals his skill in the free-verse that he calls "rhymeless lyrics with irregular rhythm." The poetry is presented both in its original German and English translation. A classic anthology of literature, charged with emotion and a stark view of ills besetting individuals and society at large. "To Those Born Later": Truly, I live in dark times! / The guileless word is folly. A smooth forehead / Suggests insensitivity. The man who laughs / Has simply not yet had / the terrible news.
