![]() The initial Broadway cast is almost as famous as the play for one big reason: Marlon Brando. It opened in December of 1947 on Broadway and ran for over two full years, earning two Tony awards for the stage production and the 1948 Pulitzer Prize. The play, which tells the story of an aging Southern belle’s difficult relationship with her aggressive brother-in-law, was successful both commercially and critically. ![]() If The Glass Menagerie propelled Williams to fame, Streetcar ensured that his name would never leave the ranks of the playwright elite. Tennessee Williams is an American playwright famous for three big plays: Glass Menagerie in 1944, A Streetcar Named Desire in 1947, and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof in 1955. There's pretty much never enough said about A Streetcar Named Desire-which is why it stays pertinent even though it's about issues (Southern belles, mid-century chastity, strict gender norms) that seem super-dusty in the 21st century. There you have it, folks: according to many in the know, this is either the #1 or #2 most amazing play scribbled by someone from the US of A. Let's just let the New York Times introduce Streetcar, shall we? Ahem hem hem:ĭepending on your feelings about "Long Day's Journey Into Night," "A Streetcar Named Desire" is either the greatest or second-greatest play ever written by an American. ![]()

Short story writing often requires a sharp, to-the-point prose style and this collection demonstrates that the author can tell the tale, get you engaged in the character and hit his marks all in a few thousand words. They cover a range of subjects, and many are quite poignant. The stories range from hardboiled crime, right through to near cosy. Together they make for a great collection that really show this writers talents, and given that the author reckons to have published over 300 short stories, I hope that this is the first of a number of collections of his work. It contains 16 stories, some new and some that have been published in other places before.

So, I figured I'd give the book a shot.įirst, let me commend the author on her commitment to diversity! Not only is the protagonist's grandmother British, but her sister has an African-American friend, her father has a Thai girlfriend, they have a Pakistani neighbor, a Jewish friend with a gluten allergy has a crush on a Muslim, another friend has a sister with autism, and a classmate is BLIND! Seems like that's a pretty impressive cast considering the main characters are Caucasian. I am surprised myself that I am giving this book 5 stars! There are so many cupcake-themed books that I honestly never stopped to consider that any one or other might really be a worthwhile read. *** WARNING: This review contains spoilers!!! *** ![]() ![]() ![]() OL15093041W Page_number_confidence 94.74 Pages 230 Partner Innodata Pdf_module_version 0.0.18 Ppi 360 Rcs_key 24143 Republisher_date 20220211143755 Republisher_operator Republisher_time 264 Scandate 20220207024242 Scanner Scanningcenter cebu Scribe3_search_catalog isbn Scribe3_search_id 9780823000838 Tts_version 4.

Now for the rating, but this time it's a little difficult. You'll need to know at the outset that this is a very dark tale, there is an abundance of skulls in the illustrations, and in my opinion, The Sleeper and the Spindle is for the mature reader, not for young kids. The illustrations are dark and elaborately drawn in black ink, with the occasional highlight in gold, giving this edition an almost illuminated feeling. ![]() In her October haul of books she mentioned she'd fallen in love with The Sleeper and the Spindle (click here for the original video) and I just had to check it out - literally, from the library.Įssentially this beautifully illustrated book is the re-telling of the Sleeping Beauty and Snow White fairytales, where Snow White has to save Sleeping Beauty, but not all is as it seems.
