Sweet Bird of Youth
Author: Tennessee Williams
Publisher: New Directions Publishing
ISBN: 9780811205962
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
The very title of Sweet Bird of Youth is one of ironic pity. The two chief characters--a raddled has-been actress from Hollywood, seeking to forget her present in drugs and sex, and her still handsome masseur-gigolo, who has brought her to his hometown in the South, believing that through her money and faded glamor his gaudy illusions may yet come true--are the reverse side of the American dream of youth. Yet as they work out their fate amid violence and horror, there is nevertheless a note of compassion for the damned.
