Description and Table of Contents

Description

George Astalos has remained a contestatory visionary, a playwright and poet who offers critiques of Eastern bloc tyranny and Western moral bankruptcy. At once absurdist and political, brutally colloquial and intensely lyrical, Astalos's theater is a comic and popular one of ideas, in which the poet and the satirist find equal voice.
