Friedrich Dürrenmatt became one of the most celebrated and critically acclaimed playwrights of the second half of the twentieth century. But from our perspective today, we can see that Dürrenmatt's career from start to finish embraced fictional works whose quality and significance are undeniable. His novellas and short stories are searing, tragicomic explorations of the ironies of justice and the corruptibility of institutions. The best known and most successful of them are ›The Judge and His Hangman‹, ›The Quarry‹, ›The Pledge‹, ›Greek Man Seeks Greek Wife‹, ›Justice‹, ›The Tunnel‹, ›Traps‹, ›The Minotaur‹ and ›The Assignment‹.
