„Und so sehen wir betroffen /
Den Vorhang zu und alle Fragen offen.“
Den Vorhang zu und alle Fragen offen.“
Bertolt Brecht*
“And so we see with concern / the curtain closed and all questions open.”
*A modification of the original Brecht version from Marcel Reich-Ranicki.
Translation:
Original version (The good person from Szechwan, Epilogue): “With consternation / We see the curtain closed, the plot unended.”
