In the late 1920s, the first two plays attributed to Ferdinand Bruckner, Youth Is a Sickness and Criminals, were ""hot tickets"", but only gradually was the pseudonymous author identified. Bruckner continues to be an understudied figure, and this updated translation of two of his most well-known plays will be the definitive version for those interested in better understanding his legacy.
