Fassbinder: Plays

By Rainer Werner Fassbinder

Book Overview

"Fassbinder's version of modern post-civilized terror was, like much else about his work, ahead of its time." --San Francisco Chronicle

The late Rainer Werner Fassbinder, the most brilliant exponent of German "New Wave" cinema, also made a startling contribution to the theatre scene with his "antiteater." His plays take their place with those of other writers such as Handke, Kroetz, Bernhard, and M uuml;ller, who created a renaissance of German drama in America.

This volume brings together six of Fassbinder's controversial plays:

The Bitter Tears of Petra van Kant
Katzelmacher
Garbage, the City, and Death
Bremen Freedom
Blood on the Cat's Neck
Pre-Paradise Sorry Now
