About this product
Product Information
Analysing a range of Eugene O'Neill's plays, this book explores the Nobel Prize winner's attempts at creating a new Modern play, particularly through his staging of alienation, depictions of kissing and fighting bodies, unusual uses of acoustics, and the creation of tragedy through the chorus, silence or immobility.

"A worthy sequel to Thierry Dubost's first book on O'Neill.... Dubost's finest insight in this excellent book is his tracing of the development of O'Neill's ideas about the tragedy of the inevitable human experience of elusiveness and loss--of the inability to sustain a sense of fulfillment and belonging.... This book makes it easy to see how O'Neill set the thematic direction for much of later American drama, especially the plays of Edward Albee and Sam Shepard, and the ease with which theatre could move from O'Neill's vision of tragedy to Beckett's vision of the absurd."-- The Eugene O'Neill Review, "A worthy sequel to Thierry Dubost's first book on O'Neill....
