About this ebook
"Savva and the Life of Man: Two plays by Leonid Andreyev" by Leonid Andreyev
Andreyev's favorite characters are degenerates, psychopaths, abnormal eccentrics, or just creatures of fancy corresponding to no reality. Frequently, however, the characters, whether real or unreal, are as such of merely secondary importance, the chief aim being the interpretation of an idea or set of ideas, and the characters functioning primarily only as a medium for the embodiment of those ideas. These plays take a journey into the unknown dramas of being alive.
