David Shepherd's empathetic study of Erich Muehsam's dramas throws new light on the literary work of an important representative of the German subculture during the early part of this century and before its extinction by the Nazis. It must be read by all scholars concerned with the Expressionist, anarchist, bohemian, and pacifist tradition in German culture. (Helmut F. Pfanner, Vanderbilt University) oThis book! should serve as an excellent introduction to a man Shepherd correctly considers one of Germany's unjustly forgotten authors of the early 20th century. (C.L. Dolmetsch, Choice) ...oShepherds! elegant und klug geschriebene Studie...wirkt in allen Teilen informativ-aufmunternd und politisch anregend. (Juergen C. Thoeming, Germanistik)
