Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A mischievous new translation by the poet Richard Wilbur, [The Bungler] is great good fun and should open the gate for the play to be presented with the regularity it deserves.Bruce Weber, The New York TimesMy notion of translation is that you try to bring it back alive. Speakability is so important. . . . I came to see that a line that simply says I love you, at the right point in the show, is entirely adequate, that a great deal of verbal sophistication is not necessarily called for.Richard WilburPoet Richard Wilburs translations of Molires plays are loved, renowned, and performed throughout the world. This volume is part of Theater Communications Groups new series (with cover designs by Chip Kidd) to complete trade publication of these vital works of French neoclassical comedy. The Bungler is Molires first recognizably great play, and the first to be written in verse. The charming farce is set in Sicily and born of the great Italian tradition of the commedia dellarte: Loyal valet Mascarille schemes to win the lovely Celie away from rival Leadre, and into the arms of his master Leslie. Molire himself originated the role Mascarille, selfdescribed as the rashest fool on earth, who naturally bungles the job along the way.Richard Wilbur is a twotime Pulitzer Prize winner and a former Poet Laureate of the United States. His publications include six volumes of poetry and two collections of selected verses, a collection of prose, and two books for children.
