Many people do not realize the value of George Rodrigue's "calendars." In the past few years, this publisher has added Blue Dogs for every week of the year. They are wonderful. Most of us can't afford the price of a Blue Dog print, so get the calendar for the prints! I noticed that the 2004 Calendar will be released this year with a new publisher. I hope the quality continues. If not,I still have this one to keep as an art collectible.

Feinberg's work is an excellent collection of biographical data and Tabori's antecdotes. Her writing is captivating, although at times her analysis is not quite clear or simply not complete. However, she does offer a huge sampling of themes prevalent in Tabori's work. The book is a good source for Taboriisms and feeling Tabori's spirit.

I snapped this one up as soon as I found it since there are no other books in English (at least, that I know of) which focus on this controversial Jewish-Hungarian playwright. I'd consider this one a must for those interested in Jewish drama, literature and/or Holocaust studies.
Tabori's drama was often more avant-garde than traditional and frequently shocking and provocative. One play, Cannibals, portrayed concentration camp inmates who were prepared to eat another inmate to survive and others of his "Holocaust" (Jubilee, My Mother's Courage, Mein Kampf) are equally revolutionary and non-conventional.
The author, Anat Feinberg, uses archival material to round out this well-written and detailed portrait of an unusual dramatist. There is also a photo section which I found captivating and quite interesting.
