About this title

Reviews

From first (1919) to last (1949), these progressively intimate letters to the influential drama critic represent the span of O'Neill's playwriting career. They show that he relied on Nathan, first, to help publicize his career; later, to inform him of Broadway news; and always to read his manuscripts with an educated, discerning eye. Essentially shoptalk, they reveal O'Neill's frustration over commercial detail and debilitating illness, and the agonies of writing and rewriting plays that helped establish a serious American drama. For collections emphasizing serious literature. Charles C. Nash, English Dept., Cottey Coll., Nevada, Mo.
