Description
This collection of Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt’s plays includes four of the author’s works: “The Night in Valognes,” “The School of Satan,” “Frederick, or the Crime Garden,” and “The Hotel Between Two Worlds.” These are surprisingly tender stories that leave a pleasant aftertaste.
Schmitt fulfills the expectations we have of him, prompting us to reflect on life and what we choose to do with it. His humor sometimes reaches the level of farce, yet it is always presented with elegance. The author’s great merit lies in his masterful treatment of fate, life’s contingencies, and its inexplicable mysteries.
