Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

First published February 1956, 54th printing. Sold along with the Modern Library 1941 edition later printing of O'Neill's NINE PLAYS. [] LONG DAY'S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT, bright, clean & tight paperback, unread, in very Good+ condition. "In this play, written in 1940 and released in 1956 after his death, Eugene O'Neill turns to the loneliest and most entangled of subjects: an unflinching portrayal, in a time of acute psychological stress, of himself and of those closest to him. He had long been haunted, as he says in his dedication, by this 'play of old sorrow,' and he could bring himself to deal with it only in the medium to which he had devoted his full creative powers. It is a somber and moving drama and its writing was an act of magnificent courage. After performance in Sweden and on Broadway it has been seen all over the world and has now been made into a film." [publisher copy] "No play Eugene O'Neill ever wrote speaks more eloquently to the reader . . . Certainly no one, henceforth, will write of his other plays without remembering this, his most revealing of himself."--Lewis Gannett. [] NINE PLAYS, hardcover, erstwhile remainder, unread, in Good condition; spine cocked ends pushed, slightly foxed, red Random House stamp on text tail, ML generic jacket w/slight wear/tears, o/w unmarked, bright & square. "Eugene O'Neill chose the nine full-length plays for this volume as representative of his work. The settings range from a native-ruled island in the West Indies to a university town win New England, but the theme is universal--the eternal tragedy of men and women caught in passionate conflict between aspiration and frustration. O'Neill wrote that 'The playwright today must dig at the roots of the sickness of today as he feels it--the death of the old God and the failure of science and materialism to give any satisfying new one . . .' His plays explore man's continuing need to give the conflict of his life some meaning beyond itself, to find some justification for the importance which it has for him; the plays themselves are efforts to achieve a self-justifying dignity and grandeur." [jacket copy] No Iceman Cometh or Moon for the Misbegotten etc in these nine, o/w a fine & handy volume. …
