About the Book
"I simply don´t see reality as just anguish, despair, negativity and sex," said Casona. His plays won the public in twenty-four countries and are still applauded by European and Hispanic audiences.
His work received enthusiastic press reviews from around the world:
"The translation into German of Casona´s works has hardly finished and a race for their premiere has already started. Sttutgart wins the race with its premiere of a comedy with a sum total of neat, smart and poetical theatrical effects. A show we´ll remember for a long time." (Mann Heimer Morgen, Stuttgart, Germany)
"Casona´s comedy is both touching and funny, with human warmth throughout, developed with a remarkable balance." (Scena Illustrata, Florence, Italy)
"In the barren panorama of our Buenos Aires theatre, Casona´s comedy is an oasis of verdant flora and clear springs." (Mundo Argentino, Buenos Aires, Argentina)
