An edition of Three plays (1969)

Three plays

Here, translated into English for the first time, are three of Nikos Kazantzakis’ most important and powerful dramatic works. Immensely readable, compelling in their themes, written in a style that is rich in poetic image, these plays are a tribute to the versatility and genius of the author of Zorba the Greek, Report to Greco and The Odyssey: A Modern Sequel, and reveal an aspect of his talent hitherto unknown in this country. Two of the plays are based upon classical Greek legend; the third is based upon Kazantzakis’ vision of Columbus’ epic voyage into the unknown; all three share in common Kazantzakis’ concern with man’s struggle to overcome fate and to triumph over his own weaknesses.
