Review: The Caucasian Chalk Circle
Nutzerbericht - Alex - GoodreadsNeat introduction by Eric Bentley. "When the house of the great collapses The lowly are also many of them crushed.

Review: The Caucasian Chalk Circle
Nutzerbericht - GoodreadsI am, clearly, missing something. The only thing reading this play gave me was a headache. War sucks, but I think that has always been a given. I didn't nee this play to know that. Also, one play is enough of a challenge without the play within a play debacle.
