| Description: |
Yan is a cat. A cat who does things very carefully. Things like making tea, or mushroom soup, or polishing the hinges of his door. One day, while he is dozing peacefully, there is a knock at his door. He opens it and there before him stands a solitary pike. |
| Synopsis: |
On first publication Antony Wood's translations of Pushkin's cycle of "Little Tragedies", of which MOZART AND SALIERI is the best known, were widely praised. Long unavailable, they have now been revised in light of public performances and current Russian interpretations. Pushkin's four miniature verse dramas, each focusing on a single extreme psychological moment, contain the finest blank verse in Russian literature and are central to the Russian dramatic repertoire. |
