Tennessee Williams 
Tennessee Williams: One Act Plays [EPUB ebook] 

Ajutor

The peak of my virtuosity was in the one- act plays. Some of which are like firecrackers on a rope. Tennessee Williams
Tennessee Williams”s lesser-known one-act plays reveal a tantalising and fascinating perspective to one of the world”s most important playwrights.
Written between 1934 and 1980, the plays of the very young writer, then of the successful Tennessee Williams, and finally of the troubled man of the 1970s, this volume offers a panoramic yet detailed view of the themes, demons, and wit of this iconic playwright.
The volume depicts American life during the Great Depression and after, populated by a hopelessly hopeful chorus girl, a munitions manufacturer ensnared in a love triangle, a rural family that deals ‘justice’ on its children, an overconfident mob dandy, a poor couple who quarrel to vanquish despair, a young ‘spinster’ enthralled by the impulse of rebellion, and, in The Magic Tower, a passionate artist and his wife whose youth and optimism are not enough to protect their ”dream marriage.”
This collection gathers some of Williams”s most exuberant early work and includes one-acts that he would later expand to powerful full-length dramas: ”The Pretty Trap, ” a cheerful take on The Glass Menagerie, and ”Interior: Panic, ” a precursor to A Streetcar Named Desire.
Plays included are:
At Liberty,
The Magic
Tower,
Me, Vashya,
Curtains for the Gentleman,
In Our Profession,
Every Twenty Minutes,
Honor the Living,
