Exit the King, the Killer, Macbett - Paperback

by Eugene Ionesco (Author), Donald Watson (Translator), Charles Marowitz (Author)

Exit the King is a highly stylized, ritualized death rite unfolding the final hours of the once-great king Berenger the First. As he dies, his kingdom also dies. His armies suffer defeat, the young emigrate, the seasons change overnight, and his kingdom's borders shrink to the outline of his throne. At last, as the curtain falls, the king himself dissolves into a gray mist.
