New Drama and Verse from Bartleby.com Authors O’Neill and Sandburg
Bartleby.com adds this week to the existing collections of authors Eugene O’Neill and Carl Sandburg with 3 new dramas and over 190 new poems, respectively.
Whether portraying prostitutes or coal-shovelers, O’Neill embues his characters with a realism that set the stage for twentieth-century American drama. With his detailed and prodigious stage directions, the three early plays collected in this edition are as exciting to read as they are to watch. “Anna Christie,” the second play in this collection, won the Pulitzer Prize for best drama of 1920.
Squarely in the tradition of Whitman, Sandburg celebrates every American in everyday America. This third volume brings the Bartleby.com Sandburg collection to nearly 450 works.
