Six Characters in Search of an Author and Other Plays Pirandello Luigi
A Penguin ClassicPirandello is the founding architect of twentieth-century drama, brilliantly innovatory in his forms and themes, and in the combined energy, imagination and visual colours of his theatre. The tragedy Henry IV dramatizes the lucid madness of a man who may be King. This volume of plays, translated from the Italian by Mark Musa, opens with Six Characters in Search of an Author, Pirandello's most popular and controversial work, in which six characters invade the stage and demand to be included in the play.
Each of these plays can lay claim to being Pirandello's masterpiece, and in exploring the nature of human personality, each one stretches the resources of drama to their limits.For more than seventy In So It Is (If You Think So), the townspeople exercise a morbid curiosity attempting to discover "the truth" about the Ponza family.
