When his father, Suddenly Last Summer and Other Plays 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 and completed his Suddenly Last Summer and Other Plays, at the same time holding a large number of part-time jobs of great diversity. He received a Rockefeller Fellowship in for his play Battle of Angels, and he won the Pulitzer Prize in and Tennessee Williams died in Rating details. Book ratings by Goodreads.

As there are three separate and very different plays in this collection I felt it best to rate them individually: Suddenly Last Summer - 5 Stars, my favourite Tennessee Williams play by far The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore - 3 Stars, I enjoyed it but it wasn't as memorable as the others I've read. Definitely a hidden gem and worth the read! Each play, written in a different decade 50s, 60s, and 70s, respectively represents a playwright trying to grapple with a world that isn't what it was when he wrote "The Glass Menagerie. But unlike Williams' past plays, this one is sterile - still dark but with all the grunge and grime of Southern Goth removed. And finally, "Small Craft Warnings" offers a playwrights attempts to bring his darkened mood to a period when pop and americana had gilded over the darkness of the Suddenly Last Summer and Other Plays decades. Williams tells the story of a group of friends in a bar in Southern California. None of them fit in and none of them quite make sense as they fight, drunkenly, with each other for love, money, and a sense of grounding. Elle ne vaut cependant pas les Classiques de Tennessee Williams. Suddenly Last Summer is a new Tennessee favourite of mine. Aug 26, Bob rated it liked it Shelves: Small Craft Warnings - 1 star. I had to start scanning it was so blah. What happens? I may try it again Again maybe I'll be in a better place for it some time in the future. Mar 25, James Tanner rated it really liked it Shelves: plays. SLS read for English lit Gothic module. All three are relatively short one-act plays Suddenly Last Summer and Other Plays each deal with the darker sides of human nature and are tinged throughout with regret and isolation. Suddenly Last Summer, probably my favourite, deals with Catherine who seemingly is insane after the death of her cousin in Europe. The tension between Catherine and her mother and brother on the one side, and her aunt on the other, is expertly done and the climax is well developed. The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore deals with a wealthy old woman and her last few days - how she deals with her memories and those around her as she is dying. It is a modernist play, with the stage assistants taking a role Suddenly Last Summer and Other Plays the play, but ultimately it left me feeling rather empty - the main character is unlikeable and brash, but then Williams is good at creating starkly realistic characters. The last play, Small Craft Warnings, is set in a seedy bar on the Californian coast as a motely crew of characters each deal with their own desperate fate. This is also one I liked as the conflict between the characters was well-developed and realistic, and the characters themselves well- realised. Overall, this is a fine collection of one-act plays by Williams and a good addition to a connoisseur of Williams' plays. It however is not the place to start for someone looking for more of Williams' well-known plays. The book I read was the play or screenplay for the movie accompanied by some stills from the movie. I was mostly interested in pictures of Liz but I did read some of it Suddenly Last Summer and Other Plays I was interested in learning the fate of her odious brother. Date read is a guess.

  • Tennessee Williams His Story
    TENNESSEE WILLIAMS HIS STORY Born 26 March 1911, Thomas Lanier Williams (later Tennessee) grew up in the southern part of the US; firstly Mississippi then Missouri. He lived with his Southern-Belle mother (Edwina), his overbearing, shoe salesman father (Cornelius), his older sister Rose and younger brother Dakin. Due to a childhood illness, Williams was never as strong as his father would have liked and was mollycoddled by his mother. Initially, Williams was content whilst living in Mississippi, but when they moved to Missouri, it became an unsettled time as the family moved frequently and his parents’ marriage was far from happy. However, his upbringing would later provide inspiration for his writing, and his mother, father and sister would emerge as characters in his plays. Williams had a passion for writing from an early age, being published and winning prizes for his work from 16 years old. At 18, Williams began attending the University of Missouri in Columbia, studying Journalism, where he continued to write poetry, essays, stories, and plays. He didn’t complete his degree though as his father withdrew him from the course so he could take a job as a sales clerk with a shoe company. The move back home was detrimental to Williams’ health and led to him suffering a nervous breakdown. After some time in hospital, he returned to studying, firstly at the Washington University in St Louis and then at the University of Iowa, where he finally received his degree in English. During this time, Williams continued to write but struggled to achieve any real success.
