About the book
"Plays written by the Italian farceur, Dario Fo, in conjunction with his wife and fellow-performer, Franca Rame. Two plays start with the breakdown of a relationship and deal with the fate of women in a society in which both the social system in which they live and its dominant ideology are shaped by men. The twenty monlogues in this volume range from the deeply serious to the extravagantly comic and are accessible to a wide range of audiences ". -- National Theatre website.
