Feel free to use this thread to ask questions and post links to resources for David Mamet and Faustus.

Also, if you’ve written a review of the book, please post a link to share with the group.

I will be there for the Mamet discussion, despite getting stuck in the literary quicksand that is Thomas Mann!

There is a BBC radio production of Mamet's Faustus that I highly recommend, especially for Ricky Jay as the Magus. I couldn't find it on the BBC website, but the audio file is available in a few places for the intrepid searcher.

Also, next week we'll be discussing the movie, Mephisto, which is based on the novel by Thomas Mann's son, Klaus Mann. Discussion will be posted in the main Faust folder.
