New Selected Essays : Where I Live

Much expanded, this selection of essays by Tennessee Williams includes such famous pieces as the debilitating effect that success had on Williams (when he had to escape from New York and success), essays on his plays, writings for his friends such as an essay on Carson McCuller's "Reflections in a Golden Eye," and more. Taken from the earliest auspicious beginnings of his career when he entered an essay contest as a teenager to his old age, this selection will give readers intimate access to Williams as an artist, poet, playwright, and a human being.
