Mother Courage and her Children

Widely regarded as Brecht's best work, Mother Courage and her Children premiered in Zurich in 1941 and has since become one of the most celebrated modern plays of all time. This new Student Edition, which features John Willett's classic translation, includes an introduction by Katherine Hollander that explores the play's production history (such as Tony Kushner's 2006 version at the Public Theatre) as well as the dramatic, thematic, and academic debates that surround it; a must-have resource for any student exploring Mother Courage and her Children.
