Reviews
Good selection of authors, but not the best of their stories.
Lots of authors and stories I never knew about until reading this book.
Seeds of Modern Drama contains several of the early realist and naturalist plays - Therese Raquin, by Zola, An Enemy of the People by Ibsen, Miss Julie by Strindberg, The Weavers by Hauptmann and The Seagull by Chekhov, with brief introductory essays to each playwright.
