Reading Mother Courage and Her Children | Alexandria
Read Mother Courage and Her Children by Bertolt Brecht. Transforming war profiteering into haunting art, Brecht's masterwork exposes how we all feed the machine of conflict through silent complicity. Mother Courage's desperate hustle to profit from warfare eerily mirrors our own economic choices. Her tragic story forces us to confront an uncomfortable truth: merely surviving often makes us complicit in systems we claim to oppose.
