Trade Paperback. Condition: Used Very Good/Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: No Jacket (As issued). First Arcade Paperback Edition. 128 Pages. Showing light bumping around the corners, light rubbing. The pages are very tight and very clean, we found NO MARKS. Writing in exile in the USA during the Second World War, Brecht borrowed from an ancient Chinese story-echoed in the Judgement of Solomon-in which two women both claim the same child. Brecht's subversion of this tale provides a parable which seems to say that resources should go to those in whose hands they will be most productive. Thanks to the rascally judge, Azdak, one of Brecht's most vivid creations, this story, at least, has a happy outcome. The child is entrusted to the peasant Grusha, who has loved it and nurtured it. Our books are guaranteed, ship the day they're sold, and they ship from Bellingham, Washington, USA. Book. Seller Inventory # 010999
