Fatzer: Downfall of an Egoist

Work:: Fatzer: Downfall of an Egoist (S0466545313)

The work follows four deserters from the First World War, who make their way back behind friendly lines, where they eke out a life underground, daring only to make occasional forays out in search of food. The social and psychological tensions played out within the group, and the contrary pulls between collaborative action and extreme egotism, give unexpected hints of Beckett or Sartre, rather than the more traditional Brecht.
