Books by Augustus Young

The Credit is an opera in verse, without music. The first Act recites the story of Hugo, a successful product of Jesuit education. Act two begins with the reported death of Hugo in Venice. Act three: the action moves onto the hill-town of Cioccolato where Hugo owns a bean factory.

Includes a long poem by the author, "The Long Habit of Living", together with his loose reworking of Mayakovsky's classic long poem "Cloud in Pants", and some loose translations of Brecht, and a number of poems 'in the manner of Brecht'.
