Description: "Despite being widely acknowledged as one of the most important German dramatists since Bertolt Brecht, the work of Heiner Müller (1929-95) still remains relatively little known in the English-speaking world. This volume aims to go some way towards redressing this, by presenting new translations of three of his plays whose complex poetic texts show the influence of Shakespeare, classical Greek tragedy and avant-garde political theatre"--Page 4 of cover.
