Purchase from Abe Books arrived yesterday: the complete theatrical - TopicsExpress



          

Purchase from Abe Books arrived yesterday: the complete theatrical works of Jean Giraudoux, a 17 volume set that includes not only the plays but variants for La folle de Chaillot and Intermezzo, the original ten page version of Lapollon de Bellac, and a four volumes of scenes cut from almost all the plays. The variants are complete, first-draft scripts, and in the case of La folle, its almost a completely different play. If you dont know his work, youre missing a treat, made all the more amazing by the fact that (1) he didnt have his first script produced until he was almost 50 and (2) many of his major works were produced during the Occupation. A tremendously nuanced writer. This is going to be a joy to dive into.
