You know, despite having played Weill's music to <strong>The Threepenny Opera</strong>, I didn't know the story. I've discovered that I have been meaning to read it for quite a while - the date I purchased the book is inscribed on the inside title page - December 1989!!! <strong>Threepenny Novel</strong> followed <strong>The Threepenny Opera</strong>, which was an adaptation of John Gay's <strong>The Beggar's Opera</strong>, but set in Victorian London. I guess now I'll have to check out Gay's work too. Absolutely, I am interested in your book recommendations. Keep them coming, and I'll add them to my list.

I never heard of this novel before - is it an adaptation of the play or vice versa? Actually, the only Brecht I've read is "The Caucasion Chalk Circle". I just finished reading The Kite Runner and I think you would enjoy it too. Are you looking for recommendations? xo Andrea How’s the Brecht going?
