Which plays are truly great, and why? This fascinating reference profiles 100 of the greatest plays drawn from all cultures and periods of literature. Compiled in consultation with literary scholars,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is a helpful book for two reasons. First, without actually having to see most ofthese plays, you can sound knowledgeable about them. This is especially important if, like me, you play in trivia games frequently. Second, several in here sound intriguing enough to see, which I would not have known had I not read the book. Of course, among the ones I did see, there is the opportunity -- as with any list -- to second-guess.
A good choice of selections. Good analysis, well written.
