A reissue of Ferlinghetti's very short experimental plays (1965) with three new plays added to the original thirteen.

In one called '"Our Little Trip" two men in conservative suits wind themselves in and out of a long bandage while a questioner circles them seeking Meaning. "Servants of the People" puts on political podium hogs in torrents of cliches. "Bearded Lady 'Dies'" features the Second Coming all decked out for newspaper coverage."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
