Synopsis
"Fassbinder's version of modern post-civilized terror was, like much else about his work, ahead of its time." --San Francisco Chronicle
The late Rainer Werner Fassbinder, the most brilliant exponent of German "New Wave" cinema, also made a startling contribution to the theatre scene with his "antiteater." His plays take their place with those of other writers such as Handke, Kroetz, Bernhard, and Müller, who created a renaissance of German drama in America.
This volume brings together six of Fassbinder's controversial plays:
- The Bitter Tears of Petra van Kant
- Katzelmacher
- Garbage, the City, and Death
- Bremen Freedom
- Blood on the Cat’s Neck
- Pre-Paradise Sorry Now

Review
"The images Fassbiner created for the stage, and in films, linger as grotesque and brutal, possessing a strange, improbable truth." -- from the Introduction
