by Moliere (Author), Nelson Pevear &. Volokhonsky (Translator)

Molière's classic comic masterpiece, is here brilliantly translated by renowned translators, Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonksy (two-time winner of the PEN/Book-of-the-Month-Club Translation Prize), and playwright/director Richard Nelson (Tony Award, Oliver Award).


"He's an impertinent one, your Molière, with his comedies... Damn it to hell, if I were the doctors, I'd take revenge for his impudence! And if he was sick, I'd let him die unattended. Whatever he might say or do, I wouldn't prescribe the least little bleeding, the least little enema for him, and I'd say to him: 'Croak! Croak!'"

ACT THREE, THE IMAGINARY INVALID

While playing Argan, Molière collapsed during the fourth performance of THE IMAGINARY INVALID, and died shortly after on 17 February 1673.
