About this book
The plays collected within this volume are social dramas and tragedies. They bear witness to human suffering, and to fine yet vain struggles to vanquish this suffering.
Four of these plays were written in prison, others were banned.
This early work by Ernst Toller was originally published in 1934, we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography.
