LIEBESKUNST

ByFrank Luger

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
"Liebeskunst"(German, lit. "Loveart") is a pseudoplay, meant to be read, not seen on stage or screen, about the incompatibility between genuinely altruistic love and superficial soap-opera type love. Felix, a widower of European background represents the first kind, and his unconditional devotion and idealistic values for an American divorcée lead to his untimely death. Mitzi, the woman he loves, represents the second kind and her monetary infatuations as well as cynical values lead to such unresolvable crises that her life also ends in violent death alongside her lover. The play begins as an idyllic after-love morning scene but soon builds up such a furious tempest of character clashes that it all climaxes in absurd tragedy. Originally written in June-July, 1986, then completed in March 1987; and published for the first time in August 2007, second time in January, 2018.
