Books by Bertolt Brecht
Stories of Mr. Keuner
by Bertolt Brecht
· published 1958 · read 2011-11-01
★★★☆☆
Brecht's short stories – which want to educate, of course – are much more bearable than his equally educational plays. Still very much on the nose, to the degree that I thought about linking the Narnia books here.
The Threepenny Opera
by Bertolt Brecht
· published 1928 · read 2011-04-01
★★★☆☆
One of the last pieces from before Brecht abandoned fun and good poems, and turned to political education.
The Good Woman of Setzuan
by Bertolt Brecht
· published 1953 · read 2011-02-01
★★★☆☆
Brecht telling you about circumstances forcing people into immoral deeds. It's peak communist Brecht, and thus unreadable and overall very annoying.
