Tres sombreros de copa/ Three Top Hats (Mil Letras/ Thousand Letters) (Spanish Edition)

One of the most significant plays of contemporary Spanish literature. "Tres sombreros de copa" breaks the mold of Spanish theatre in the 50s with a new type of humor, one that is bittersweet. This play, which was first performed twenty years after being written, tells the story of a modest public official who gets a chance to change his dull and sad life. Meaningless and absurd situations along with incredible dialog hide a deeper significant reality.
