商品簡介
This volume contains four short plays by Soviet/Russian dramatist Nina Sadur: Go , Pechorin: In Memoriam , <Red Paradise and The Witching Hour . Sadur first came to prominence in the 1980s and the works in this book bridge the late Soviet and post-Soviet eras. Her work is woman-centric and phantasmagoric, with many strange characters (a young vampire witch, werewolves that kill out of compassion, she-demons), extreme situations, and death commonplace.
