Thanks to Oh Kon Cho's<br />

present work one more side of<br />

this fascinating but little<br />

understood topic has come to<br />

light. The study is likely to<br />

have wide appeal among the<br />

thousands of puppeteers and<br />

puppet masteres in the Englishspeaking<br />

world who seek<br />

inspiration by excursions into<br />

literary heritages different from<br />

their own and who are looking<br />

<strong>for</strong> new techniques of puppet<br />

manipulation which may<br />

breathe new life into their own<br />

work. Of primary interest to<br />

any reader will be the plays.<br />
