| − | Based on the work of Italo Svevo., ''[[Confessions of Zeno]]'' was created in 2001 as a collaborative project between artist/director [[William Kentridge]], the [[Handspring Puppet Company]], composer [[Kevin Volans]] and writer [[Jane Taylor]]. It combines puppets and humans to explore the worlds of work and of erotic pleasure that sustain the life of the modern European bourgeoisie in the years before the outbreak of World War I. The central character (Zeno) recalls the great moments of indecision and irresolution that have marked his life, and that have set in place his unresolved relationships with his father, and his wife and his mistress.
