The First Lulu: by Frank Wedekind * English Version of the Play by Eric Bentley

(Applause Books). "The complete script to Frank Wedekind's symphony or rather a cacophony of deotic sexual rhetorics. Eric Bentley's achievement here as translator is a beautifully playable and juicy English; his larger gift is the opening to us of what must be ranked as among the supreme masterpieces of nineteenth-century theater." Donald Lyons, The New Criterion
