Wozzeck

A study of a mans physical and mental limitations In the 24 quite harsh and grueling fragments of the unfinished drama a body and a mind are tested as far as they can be pushed before their owner goes over the edge Is there just one thing that proves to be too much for Franz Woyzeck or is it an accumulation of miseries and torments of a wretched existence Woyzeck is perhaps not so much a bleak account of how miserable life can be as how much strength is required to deal with the daily vicissitudes of life and how delicate and fragile a balance the human psyche rests on
