'And So ad Infinitum' (The Life of the Insects) - An Entomological Review, in Three Acts a Prologue and an Epilogue

This antiquarian volume contains Karel Capek's 'And So Ad Infinitum: An Entomological Review in Three Acts'. This delightfully witty and thoroughly thought-provoking play is testament to Capek's mastery of the written word in all its forms, and constitutes a worthy addition to any personal library. The acts of this play are: 'Act I: The Butterflies', 'Act II: Creepers and Crawlers', 'Act III: The Ants', 'Epilogue: Death and Life'. Karel Capek (1890 - 1938) was a famous Czech writer of the early-twentieth century. He worked as a playwright, publisher, literary reviewer, and art critic, but is most remembered for his science fiction writing. We are republishing this antiquarian book now in an affordable, modern edition - complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
