Ah, Zoyd !  He had style, he had grace.  He was a true Bohemian.
Back in 1618, simply throwing Catholics out of the castle window was excuse
enough to wage Thirty Years of War.   Zoyd's divertissement served up
similar aphorisms and concomitance. And now, a troupe of visual vagabonds
have embraced defenestation as a genre of artistic expression.  All three do
indeed share a comparable interregnum, a struggle against the incubus of old
régime's and the only definitive victor is the camp that conveys a
confraternity.  
And, by the way, have you heard MaryAnne Faithfull's latest recording.  She
does a great cabaret adaptation of Bertolt Brecht and Curt Vile's (sp) work.
