Three contentious and enduring plays about the clash of the
individual and society
Fire Raisers (1958) tells the tale of a respectable bourgeois
whose house is one day visited by three strangers. It "is
successful on every level; the story is as gripping as an adventure
story; each line is fraught with several meanings: as an allegory
it is unique" (Edna O'Brien); Andorra is based on the author's own
experience of anti-semitism in Switzerland and is about Andri, a
young man who is believed to be a Jew and who is persecuted by his
community as a result; Triptych is a portrait of a writer grappling
with his own mortality. The flexible and contemporary translations
by Michael Bullock (The Fire Raisers, Andorra) and Geoffrey Skelton
(Triptych) are here complemented by an introduction by Peter
Loeffler.
