Product Description

The author of such modern classics as The Bald Soprano, Exit the King, Rhinoceros, and The Chairs, Eugene Ionesco is "one of the most important and influential figures in the modern theater" (Library Journal). This crucial collection combines The New Tenant with Amedee and Victims of Duty--the plays Richard Gilman has called, along with The Killer, Ionesco's "greatest plays, works of the same solidity, fulness, and permanence as [those of] his predecessors in the dramatic revolution that began with Ibsen and is still going on."

5.0 out of 5 stars Ionesco Best Playwright, Sep 6 2011

By Writer Ed - Published on Amazon.com

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Amedee and Other Plays: Amedee, the New Tenant and Victims of Duty (Paperback)

Victims of Duty is in this group and it is hilarious!
Ionesco is on the top I feel of the Theatre of the Absurd
top three playwrights, Ionesco, Pirandello and Stoppard.
See Esslin's The Theatre of the Absurd for a review of Ionesco's
work, with Pinter, Albee and Beckett. On the cutting edge of this
kind of work which makes the present off Broadway play fare, look
very bad.
