The un-named protagonist's bid to escape his middle-class daily life is ultimately frustrated. It is a popular piece in which Kaiser satirized the cheapness and futility of modern society. His hero, a kind of machine-age Everyman, searches everywhere for some kind of fulfilment - in commercial sex, in salvationist religion - but discovers through a series of nightmarish episodes that the world is deceitful and illusory. In the end, disillusioned and pursued by the police, he takes his own life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis new version by Dennis Kelly, opened at the National Theatre's Lyttelton Theatre in November 2013, as part of the National's 50th Anniversary Season.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Georg Kaiser\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1783190132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781783190133\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oberon Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.30d","brand":"Georg Kaiser","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44077323387135,"sku":"9781783190133","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e6e75207-6313-415c-9c79-d0348aacb1e4.jpg?v=1685469365","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-morning-to-midnight-georg-kaiser-9781783190133","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
