In this volume, veteran Israeli playwright Shmuel Cohavy presents, for the first time in English, two of his most famous works. The first play, Shores, takes place on a boat sailing to Israel. Albert is a stow¬away f leeing an asylum in Marseille, while David is a trusted crewman about to retire dealing with his girlfriend, the prostitute Alice, and the captain, who doesn't care for him. What will happen at his farewell party? The second play, Ausitis, features Dean, a prince who has been robbed of his right¬ful throne by the commander of the army, Nutro. On the island Dean has been exiled to, a group of young natives want his help in deposing their king... Things get complicated when Livya, the prince's former fiancée, arrives on the island. Discarded by Nutro in turn, she now has no choice but to face the lover she betrayed.
Ein Ro'eem is a comedy that takes place on a kibbutz in Israel. Kibbutz members create a show for a children's celebration and rehearse in a field amid successful and unsuccessful love affairs. Meanwhile, the kibbutz decides to cut down part of its unprofitable orchard, inspiring strikes and disagreements. Will they save the orchard? Will the love affairs survive? And will the show go on? In Out There, in the Forest, three plots are intertwined. A British journalist is intrigued by a mysterious tiger-masked murderer and travels to Africa to find him. Who is this murderer? Is there a reason for his attacks, or is he simply a lunatic? Gordon desperately wants to look the murderer in the eyes. What will he see? Will he live to tell the tale? Meanwhile, three American women struggle with harsh living conditions in the very jungle where the murderer is based. Will they escape the masked man and survive their battle against nature? And the population of the Eastern African Republic rebels against their ruler, who rose to power in a military coup. Will their revolt succeed or will they continue to endure the harsh regime? Shmuel Cohavy is an Israeli writer who spent most of his youth on a kibbutz. He also worked at the Timna copper mines and studied history and filmmaking at Tel Aviv University. Although Cohavy's plays have already been presented in the Finborough Theatre in London, this book marks the first time his plays have been published in English.
