  (Applause Books). The complete script to Frank Wedekind's symphony or rather a cacophony of deotic sexual rhetorics. Eric Bentley's achievement here as translator is a beautifully playable and juicy English; his larger gift is the opening to us of what must be ranked as among the supreme masterpieces of nineteenth-century theater.
