«Los últimos días de la humanidad» is the play by Karl Kraus, published by Tusquets Editores in paperback (640 pages, in Spanish).
«Los últimos días de la humanidad» is a tragedy in five acts with prologue and epilogue, deemed unstageable, portraying World War I as a mosaic of voices: press, salons, the powerful, and victims. Written during the conflict and revised until 1922, it brings together genres and styles to show the everyday horror of war.

A work for readers of European theatre and the history of World War I.
