Romulus is not to be missed, July 11 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Romulus (Paperback)
Romulus is one of the biggest hits of this sardonic Swiss playwright and novelist. Known in the USA only for The Viisit and the Physicists, Durrenmatt is one of this century's most brilliant theatrical lights. His works are informed by sardonic humor, beautiful language, intriguing plot twists, high suspense (he pot-boiled murder mysteries)and political insight. His essays are also interesting. Anything by him is going to be a good read.

Romulus, Nov 4 2006
By Carla Filippo - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Romulus (Paperback)
Great book! A reflection on decline and fall of empires and civilizations, written immediately after the II WW, with a persistent thought on the decline of the European society. Gore Vidal's translation in English is absolutely wonderful!
