War primer

Description:

"During his exile from his native germany in the Second World War, in Sweden, Finland and in the USA, Brecht cut out striking war photographs from newspapers and magazines, kept them in a portfolio, and, either immediately or later, wrote acerbic, satirical, angry, and often poignant four-line poems to accompany them. The result is an outstanding literary memorial to the Second World War, and also one of the most spontaneous, revealing and moving of Brecht's works"--
