The Theatre of Tennessee Williams
Author: Tennessee Williams
Publisher: New Directions Publishing
ISBN: 9780811211963
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 436
Book Description
Volume III of the series includes Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955), Orpheus Descending (1957), and Suddenly Last Summer (1958). The first, which won both the Pulitzer Prize and Drama Critics Award, has proved every bit as successful as William's earlier A Streetcar Named Desire. The other two plays, though different in kind, both have something of the quality of Greek tragedy in 20th-century settings, bringing about catharsis through ritual death.
