A publication to commemorate
John Berger’s centenary.
These seven poems have been taken from a longer prose work by Bertolt Brecht called messingkauf.* We have translated these poems by themselves because they struck us as being immediately useful. They explain—far more clearly than most commentators have done—many of Brecht’s theories about the theatre.
—Berger & Bostock, 1961.
