While this book may contain the shortest of Brecht (not known for his brevity), it definitely does not include the best of Brecht. The pieces are all interesting and compelling in their way, but more as political polemic than story, since most of these contain only the barest bones of a story. It brings back forcefully the blackness of a time when the world was in a great turmoil, and a great evil was creeping over the earth. The problem is, the plays focus heavily on Communist propaganda, and come across more as pedantic preaching than theatre. This isn't unusual in Brecht, but there are places where he manages to pull it off much better than here. Definitely read it; the look inside the mind of the time is worthwhile. Just don't expect it to live up to theatrical expectations. ( ) ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
These six plays represent the best and most humorous of Brecht's shorter works. The Jewish Wife is from the Fear and Misery in the Third Reich cycle of one-act plays, which, along with In Search of Justice and The Informer, chromicles the hardships of life in Nazi Germany. The Exception and the Rule, one of Brecht's most popular short works, grimly depicts the consequences of the mutually dependent -- yet inevitable inequitable -- relationship between the priviledged and the poor; it is included here with The Measures Taken and The Elephant Calf. Though all of these ales of horror, ad Eric Bentley calls them, have tragic undertones, they are also infused with farcical absurdities and cosmic irony so characteristic of Brecht's work.
