Legendary playwright and German modernist Bertolt Brecht tells

an alarming tale of survival and conflict.

On a morning like any other morning, Shlink, a lumber merchant in the Chicago underworld, confronts a young book clerk, George Garga, and offers to buy his opinion.

Garga refuses to sell himself at any price, and the fight ensues.  Stakes are raised and gradually their fortunes, their families, and the entire city are drawn into the match.  

In the Jungle of Cities is one of Brecht’s earlier works, written in 1923, when he just turned 25.  

In this work, the young playwright expresses both his attraction to the excitement

and danger of the modern city, as well as his criticism

of the dehumanizing effects of capitalism and mechanization.
