Publisher's Synopsis
This first English publication of Maria Lampadaridou Pothou's work is a collection of her critically acclaimed writing. It includes a revisionist version of a Sophoclean tragedy, Antigone or The Nostalgia of Tragedy, which was written to protest Greek dictatorship. Praised by Samuel Beckett, Pothou wrote the other two featured plays: The Glass Box, and Bidding You Farewell, in the tradition of the Theatre of the Absurd. Also included are poems from The Mystic Passage.
