Product Description

From Library Journal

pap.* $6. F The noted playwright took his first plunge into fiction with this 1950 novel. Reminiscent of his brand of drama, the plot follows an older woman's romantic involvement with a younger man in the great Italian capital. At the time of its debut, LJ 's reviewer praised the book for its "splendid characterization" ( LJ 9/1/50).

4.0étoiles sur 5 Vintage Williams, Aoû 2 2000
Par Un client
This review is from: Roman Spring Of Mrs Stone (Paperback)
Tennessee Williams is, of course, one of the country's master dramatists. So much emphasis is placed on his plays, however, that it is easy to forget that Williams--poet, novelist, essayist--was a true man of letters. While it lacks the intensity of "Streetcar" or the heartbreaking tenderness of "The Glass Menagerie," "The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone" is vintage Williams just the same. Williams once said that he was interested in characters who "were frightened of life. . .who were desperate to reach out to another person." Karen Stone, a lonely, fragile woman who is desperate to "stop the drift" following the death of her husband and her own fading youth and beauty, is such a character. It will never be considered one of his masterpieces, but it will touch your heart in a way that only Williams can.
