One of the great classics of European literature, 'Faust' is Goethe's most complex and profound work. To tell the dramatic and tragic story of one man's pact with the Devil in exchange for knowledge and power, Goethe drew from an immense variety of cultural and historical material, and a wealth of poetic and theatrical traditions. Stuart Atkins's translation presents the formal and rhythmic dexterity of 'Faust' in all its richness and beauty, without recourse to archaisms or interpretive elaborations.
