MONTEIRO (Luís de Sttau). TODOS OS Anos, pela Primavera. Lisboa. 1963. - MONTEIRO (Luís de Sttau) TODOS OS Anos, pela Primavera . Colecção de Teatro. Lisboa: Guimarães Editores, 1963. 108, [2] pp.; 190 mm. The first edition of this two-act play, awarded the 1962 Grand Prize for Theatre by the Portuguese Society of Theatre Writers and Composers, was immediately banned by the censorship of the Estado Novo regime. The play was only staged again in 1975, after the 25th of April Revolution. Every Year, in Spring is a parable of confinement in which jailers and prisoners share the same space, blurring the lines between those who imprison and those who are imprisoned. The play was written and published while Sttau Monteiro was in prison. Rare in its first edition. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
