Tennessee Williams was born in 1911 in Columbus, Mississippi, where his grandfather was the episcopal clergyman. When his father, a travelling salesman, moved with his family to St Louis some years later, both he and his sister found it impossible to settle down to city life. He entered college during the Depression and left after a couple of years to take a clerical job in a shoe company. He stayed there for two years, spending the evenings writing. He entered the University of Iowa in 1938 and completed his course, at the same time holding a large number of part-time jobs of great diversity. He received a Rockefeller Fellowship in 1940 for his play Battle of Angels, and he won the Pulitzer Prize in 1948 and 1955. Among his many other plays Penguin have published The Glass Menagerie (1944), Summer and Smoke (1948), The Rose Tattoo (1951), Camino Real (1953), Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955), Orpheus Descending (1957), Sweet Bird of Youth (1959), Period of Adjustment (1960), The Night of the Iguana (1961), The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore (1963; revised 1964) and Small Craft Warnings (1972).

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Tennessee Williams's A Streetcar Named Desire is the tale of a catastrophic confrontation between fantasy and reality, embodied in the characters of Blanche DuBois and Stanley Kowalski. This Penguin Modern Classics edition includes an introduction by Arthur Miller.'I have always depended on the kindness of strangers'Fading southern belle Blanche DuBois is adrift in the modern world. When she arrives to stay with her sister Stella in a crowded, boisterous corner of New Orleans, her delusions of grandeur bring her into conflict with Stella's crude, brutish husband Stanley Kowalski. Eventually their violent collision course causes Blanche's fragile sense of identity to crumble, threatening to destroy her sanity and her one chance of happiness.Tennessee Williams's steamy and shocking landmark drama, recreated as the immortal film starring Marlon Brando, is one of the most influential plays of the twentieth century.Tennessee Williams (1911-1983) was born in Columbus, Mississippi.

读后感

评分

——孤独一瞥 要是指望一种无趣的快感,不如趁早再见。好的文学作品,旋律总不那么轻快。负于沉重、震颤,总在日后想来舒坦。威廉斯笔下的人物锁着重重面具,掩盖多重身份——诉说时代下的阴影、人物的生死欲念。 作品总不该与现实打上等号,却侧映出“舞台”的悲喜、重影。布...

在一个落后且文明不够开化的男权社会,女人和同性恋者永远都是第一牺牲者。在这个“残破的世界”(broken world),威廉姆用残忍的笔触给予了文中同性恋者和所有女性的一个残酷的结局:一个被瞎子指引的瞎子——斯特拉,一个被原始野兽般男性社会践踏身心并逼迫至疯的布兰奇,一...

原版很好看,网上找的中译本糟透了,以后尽量都看原版。

All insanity derives from unquenchable greed and sentiment,Stanley's subtle regretion is definitely the best ending.

评分

Tennessee关于nice people的定义让人动容,他说他自己ashamed to say, 其实就是最简单纯粹的,反对过多阐释,反对脸谱化,将戏剧还原于最原本的生活冲突。这本书是我最近最无法自拔的一本,世间有很多看似不合理的存在,思考如何人性地对待这种存在,并且尽可能融洽地与之共存,在其宿命性的自我毁灭之前如何去做点什么,永远是我脑中长久以来遭反复证明又不得要领的一个命题。

Whoever you are — I have always depended on the kindness of strangers

她努力地想逃避不堪回首的过去,可带着一个没落贵族的各种矫情,实在是与一个中下层社会格格不入。
