Beschreibung

This book contains the play No More Peace, written by the famous German playwright Ernst Toller. An entertaining and thoughtful comedy, this play promises to entertain and provoke the mind of the reader and constitutes a must-have for any fans of Toller's seminal work. Originally published in 1937, we are proud to republish this scarce text with a new prefatory biography of the author. Ernst Toller (1893 -1939) was a German left-wing playwright, best remembered for his expressionist plays. He was also briefly the President of the Bavarian Soviet Republic in 1919, after which time he was imprisoned for five years. This book has been elected for modern republication due to its immense literary value and in the hope that it will continue to be read and enjoyed by future generations.

Über den Autor

Ernst Toller was a revolutionary, poet and playwright engagé, president for six days of the short-lived Bavarian Soviet Republic, best known for his Expressionist plays Hoppla! We're Alive, Man of the Masses and Machine Breakers. In his day Ernst Toller (1893-1939) was as renowned as the young Bertolt Brecht. High profile persona non grata in 1933 when the Nazis came to power, Toller fled to London, went on a lecture tour to the U.S. in 1936, and tried to make a go of it as a screenwriter in Los Angeles. Dispirited, despondent upon learning that his brother and sister had been sent to a concentration camp, and convinced that the world as he knew it had succumbed to the forces of darkness, Toller was found dead by hanging, a presumed suicide, in his room at the Hotel Mayflower on May 22, 1939.
