Rear cover notes: "The guiding light of the Surrealist movement, Alfred Jarry was, and remains, the most important figure in the development of the Theater of the Absurd. His plays - among them the now famous Ubu plays - have become an integral part of the history of the theater, and his essays and poems widely read. This collection allows the reader to gauge the full range of Jarry's work. Included are Cyril Connolly's superb translation of Ubu Cuckolded, Simon Watson Taylor's fine version of Jarry's key work, Exploits and Opinions of Doctor Faustroll, Pataphysician, extracts from the novels Days and Nights, Journal of a Deserter, and Messalina, and his best-known poems, essays, drawings, and writings on the theater."
