"From 1914 when Brecht was a teenager, through his long years of exile from Nazi Germany to his controversial postwar residence in East Berlin, the book covers the whole span of Brecht's life and thought."--BOOK JACKET.
"This collection of newly translated writing, a companion volume to Brecht on Theatre and Brecht on Film and Radio, transforms our image of one of the literary giants of the twentieth century." "The essays, criticism, speeches, diaries and journalism included here represent the work of a uniquely entertaining, illuminating and thought-provoking commentator on culture, aesthetics and politics. Across four decades of economic turmoil, war and social upheaval, these pieces offer an extraordinary insight into the concerns of a writer for whom art and politics were inseparable.".
