Written in 1940 during Brecht's exile in Finland, Puntila is one
of his greatest creations - to be ranked alongside "Galileo" and
"Mother Courage." A hard-drinking Finnish landowner, Puntila
suffers from a divided personality: when drunk he is human and
humane; when sober, surly and self-centred. The play contains some
of the best comedy Brecht wrote for the theatre.
This translation by John Willett is accompanied by Brecht's own
notes and relevant texts, as well as an extensive introduction and
commentary by John Willett and Ralph Manheim, editor's of Brecht's
collected plays in English.
