MR. X. That, too, perhaps. But don't you think an intelligent fellow like myself might fix matters so that he was never found out? I am alone all the time--with nobody watching me--while I am digging out there in the fields. It wouldn't be strange if I put something in my own pockets now and then.

ADOLPH. [Uneasily] I don't know. You live with a woman for years, and you never stop to analyse her, or your relationship with her, and then--then you begin to think--and there you are!--Gustav, you are my friend. The only male friend I have. During this last week you have given me courage to live again. It is as if your own magnetism had been poured into me. Like a watchmaker, you have fixed the works in my head and wound up the spring again. Can't you hear, yourself, how I think more clearly and speak more to the point? And to myself at least it seems as if my voice had recovered its ring.

JEAN [Sitting]. I don't wish to hurt you, but they used an expression--threw hints of a certain kind--but you are not a child, you can understand. When one sees a lady drinking alone with a man-- let alone a servant--at night--then.

David Frenchs adaptation of August Strindbergs disturbing and enduring drama of the transgressive affair between the daughter of a count and the counts man-servant has an eerie contemporary feel about it. French has sharpened the psychodramas of the original scenes of desire, anger, jealousy, coercion, manipulation, exploitation, arrogance, dominance, submission, and deceit. Cast of 2 women and 1 man.

The mortal conflict of the sexes, traced here by Strindberg in the clash between an aristocratic young woman and her valet. Plays for Performance Series.

By far Strindberg's most aggressive work. The Father is a feverish nightmare of the struggle he saw between defiant masculinity and the treacherous weakness of women. Plays for Performance Series.

August Strindberg is often considered the father of modern Swedish literature. His vast output of plays was innovative in style and form. Volume 1 of Selected Plays presents selections from the beginning of his career, before Strindberg\u2019s period of psychotic attacks in the 1890s. Master Olof (1872) is a historical drama set in early Reformation Sweden, influenced by Ibsen and Shakespeare. Two of his most produced plays today, The Father (1887) and Miss Julie (1888), are examples of his naturalistic plays. Strindberg described Creditors (1888), a tragicomedy, as his \u201cmost mature work.\u201d The Stronger (1889), a playlet, is a favorite in acting classes. Playing with Fire (1893) is one of his few comedies. These plays deal with Strindberg\u2019s preoccupation with power struggles and sexual warfare.
