Description
The three plays in this volume illustrate Kleist's genius and versatility. Includes: Prince Friedrich von Homburg, a tautly plotted clash of love, honor, and obedience to State; The Broken Pitcher, which one him acclaim for his crisp dialogue and robust humor; and Ordeal by Fire, the most colorful, atmospheric play of its time to have a female protagonist.
