Storm Still: Klartext Und Poesie In Peter Handke's "Immer Noch Sturm", Scott Abbott
Scott Abbott

Although the play has been attacked as an act of linguistic nationalism, a careful reading of the play finds it one more document in the author's lifelong commitment to laying bare the coercive structures of language.
