The Key to the Great Gate and Other Plays

Meer over het boek

Exploring themes of survival and resilience, the collection features four plays by Frank J. Morlock. "The Key to the Great Gate" delves into the horrors of 1942 Vienna, where a Jewish prisoner manipulates time to cope with Nazi oppression. "Heroes and Romantics of Our Times" critiques small-town corruption through a sheriff's twisted relationship. "Lady Liberty" presents a man's escape from his marriage in a sanitarium, while "The Writing Lesson" humorously tackles the challenges of writing under Stalinist censorship. Each play highlights the struggles of the underdog.
