Omschrijving

Such Is Life: A Play In Five Acts is a dramatic work written by German playwright Frank Wedekind and originally published in 1916. The play follows the story of a young man named Wendelin who, after being expelled from school, embarks on a journey of self-discovery and exploration. Along the way, he encounters a variety of characters, including a group of anarchists, a seductive young woman, and a wealthy businessman, all of whom challenge his beliefs and values. Through Wendelin's experiences, Such Is Life explores themes of love, sexuality, morality, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. The play is known for its provocative and controversial content, which includes explicit sexual references and political commentary. Wedekind's writing style is characterized by a blend of naturalism and expressionism, with vivid and often surreal imagery used to convey the emotional intensity of the characters' experiences. Such Is Life was one of Wedekind's most successful works and remains a significant contribution to German literature and drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
