Witkacy''s send-up assumes the form of a ghost story full of surprises, in the course of which an entire family of four is gleefully dispatched to the other world. When it was first performed in 1923 in Torun, Country House was judged unsuitable for the general public because it derided moral, social and dramatic convention.Polish theatre archive ;v. 3.Polish dramaPolish literaturePolish drama.Polish literature.891.8/5272Witkiewicz Stanisław Ignacy1885-1939.444859Gerould Daniel C(Daniel Charles),1928-2012.907199MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910957100103321Country house4471840UNINA
