Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - All of the great Greek trilogies were actually tetralogies, with the fourth play being a satyr play, only one of which has survived. 'Orestes in the Underworld' is the until-now-missing farcical fourth play of the Oresteia.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Six short plays performed between 2009 and 2019. 'Potions and Pets' is a one-act comedy on the theme of 'if your pets could talk.' 'One Step Braver' is the true story of Ellory Schempp's protest against the reading of Bible passages and The Lord's Prayer in his Abington, Pennsylvania, high school in 1956, which led to a U.S. Supreme Court decision in 1962.

'Was Justice Served ' contrasts the actions of a World War II veteran who liberated a German prison camp with his court-martial for mistreating an SS officer. 'Male Bonding' is a humorous look at the shallowness of men's emotional lives.…

Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | "Guilty or Not" is an expressionistic trip through the American criminal justice system. It is a two-act, full-length play. After a long night of drinking, Pat Barlow is arrested for a crime he doesn't remember. He goes to the police station for an interview, makes an initial court appearance, goes to the public defender's office, returns to court, retains an attorney, returns to court again, goes with his attorney twice to the district attorney's office, and makes a final court appearance, never completely understanding what's going on. Legal scenes alternate with scenes in Pat's apartment, and as he becomes more obsessed with the legal process, his relationship with his wife deteriorates and eventually disintegrates.

Similarities to Kafka's "The Trial" are obvious and unavoidable, but the danger of this work being derivative was considered throughout its writing and I concluded that any portrait of the criminal justice system will inevitably bear a resemblance to that classic work.
