註釋

This volume offers two takes on Moliere's most famous plays by the award-winning poet and playwright Liz Lochhead." "Miseryguts, her translation of Le Misanthrope, is a bitter comedy about a wordly sophisticate who cannot help telling uncomfortable truths about his fellow men - and women, with one of whom, despite himself, he is deeply and painfully in love. Lochhead transmutes the characters into media rats in present-day Scotland, injecting the zest and vigour of her own comedies - with an added layer of biting satire." "Tartuffe she translates in an energetic and rollicking Scots, bringing out Moliere's mix of political satire and black comedy as the religious hypocrite, Tartuffe, worms his way into Orgon's household."--BOOK JACKET.
