New York: Atheneum, 1965. Softcover. Near Fine. First American edition. Trade paperback. Spine lightly sunned, wrappers modestly worn, still a very good to near fine copy. An important, imaginative, and very uncommon German play. Commonly abbreviated as *Marat/Sade*, the Tony Award-winning 1966 Broadway version was directed by Peter Brook and featured Patrick Magee, Ian Richardson, and Glenda Jackson. All three had appeared in the London debut, and they and most of the stage cast appeared in Brooks's 1967 film version. (Inventory #: 407250)
