Opis

The first complete collection of the works of American playwright Susan Glaspell, this book includes all seven of the Pulitzer Prize winner's seven one-act works: Suppressed Desires, Trifles, The People, The Outside, Woman's Honor, Close the Book, and Tickless Time. The book also features Glaspell's seven full-length plays, including Bernice, Inheritors, The Verge, Alison's House, The Comic Artist, Chains of Dew, and Springs Eternal, the last two of which are published here for the first time. Each play includes an introductory essay along with extended biographical and critical essays. A previously unknown Glaspell play, the political parody Free Laughter, is included in an appendix. Two other appendices give details on both first run and recent productions of Glaspell's plays.
