Description

The NHB Drama Classics series presents the world's greatest plays in affordable, highly readable editions for students, actors and theatregoers.

The hallmarks of the series are accessible introductions (focussing on the play's theatrical and historical background, together with an author biography, key dates and suggestions for further reading) and the complete text, uncluttered with footnotes.

The translations, by leading experts in the field, are accurate and above all actable.

The editions of English-language plays include a glossary of unusual words and phrases to aid understanding. Yerma tells the tale of an impassioned childless woman living with her husband in rural Spain.

Tortured by her incessant longing to conceive a child, she is driven by madness to commit a heinous crime. This edition, translated and introduced by Jo Clifford, also contains a chronology and suggestions for further reading.
