Katz, Pamela
The partnership : Brecht, Weill, three women, and Germany on the brink / Pamela Katz - New York : Nan A. Talese/Doubleday , 2015 - 375 p. ; 24 cm
Index included
The first book to tell the full story of Brecht and Weill's impulsive, combustible partnership, the compelling psychological drama of one of the most important creative collaborations of the past century. It is also the first book to give full credit where it is richly due to the three women - [actresses Lotte Lenya and Helene Weigel and writer Elizabeth Hauptmann] - whose creative gifts contributed enormously to their masterworks. And it tells the thrilling and iconic story of artistic daring entwined with sexual freedom during the Weimar Republic's most fevered years, a time when art and politics and society were inextricably mixed.
