Four Plays: The Flood, Mister Mister, Only Ten Minutes to Buffalo, The Wicked Cooks by Günter Grass
Requirements: .PDF reader, 3.7 Mb
Overview: Günter Grass began his writing career as a poet and dramatist. His early plays, four of which are collected in this volume, show the brilliant inventiveness and the verbal pyrotechnics that made his later novels electrifying. As with the novels, the plays’ surface farce and absurdity enwrap complex motives.
Each of the plays indulges in a combination of discussions regarding Platonism, semiotics, nationalism and a host of other post-modern themes, often times in a surrealist setting. Grass’ key images and motives ring their changes in these plays, which are but another facet of his many-sided creativity.
Genre: Fiction > General Fiction/Classics
The Plays:
The Flood – stands for mankind’s survival of yet another catastrophe.
Mister, Mister – plays the sinisterly innocent games of childhood
Only Ten Minutes to Buffalo – spoofs the grandiloquence of stationary drivers who delude themselves that they are advancing at top speed.
The Wicked Cooks – no less is at stake than the secret of life.
