Das erste Drama, das ich wirklich freiwillig und wirklich, wirklich gern gelesen habe. Das auch ohne Deutsch-Unterricht verständlich ist, große Fragen aufwirft (und sie nicht beantwortet, aber das ist auch schwer. Oder unmöglich) 
Definitiv sehr lesenswert, und ich glaube, ich werde zum Brecht-Fan.

An interesting take on how capitalism prevents people from acting morally, clearly shown by Shen Te's goodness and her contrasting alter ego Shui Ta. Maybe this is just because I prefer reading novels but the message did feel quite simplistic at times and like Brecht really wants to emphasise capitalism = bad (although the storyline is still quite complex and the characters are mostly well developed).
