Four plays in verse on classic Greek themes - Phaedra, Iphigenia at
Aulis, ?? These are plays of blood and death, the weary concern
with cause and effect, life and death, life in death. Written in
part on two Guggenheim Fellowships, the plays represent the work of
a disciplined technician. The verse is somber and cadenced, the
action intense and compact. However, for the general reader, these
plays of lust and violence have little of life in them - dark, dim,
difficult, they will have a limited appearl. (Kirkus Reviews)
Kenneth Rexroth's sequence of four short plays, Beyond the
Mountains, was first brought out by New Directions in 1951, then
reprinted in 1966 by City Lights Books.
