Langer, František - Hry III / Langer

Product description: Langer, František - Hry III / Langer

The third volume of plays by František Langer contains four comedies from the 1920s that were very successful in their time (A Camel through the Eye of a Needle, Grand Hotel Nevada, The Conversion of Ferdyš Pištora, Marriage Inc.), which, for their genial, sometimes lightly ironic humour, tendency to idealise, and sense for a good end were not just in their day but also later warmly received by the public and most theatre critics, who moreover appreciated Langer’s excellent dramatic technique and lightly and playfully portrayed Hermannesque figures.
