Book Reviews of The Threepenny Opera (Brecht, Bertolt)

Book Review: Probably the best translation to capture Brecht's intentions
Summary: 5 Stars

Of all the translations on the market, this one is the best -- most are watered-down, tepid versions. Manheim & Willet's was used in the late 1970's revival of the piece by the New York Shakespeare Festival, which starred the late Raul Julia and Ellen Greene (of "Little Shop of Horrors" fame, in the role originally intended for Lotte Lenya).
