The Collected Plays of Edward Albee, Volume 1: 1958-1965
The Collected Plays of Edward Albee, Volume 1 includes eight plays from 1958-1965 by "a major American playwright who helped change the shape of drama here and abroad" (New York Times).
Edward Albee's plays featured here range from the four brilliant one-act plays with which he exploded on the New York theater scene--The Zoo Story, The Death of Bessie Smith, The Sandbox, and The American Dream--to his early masterpiece, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Also included are two adaptations from notable American novels The Ballad of the Sad Café and Malcolm and Albee's mysteriously fascinating Tiny Alice.
This book represents one of the most exciting and bold periods in the career of one of America's most popular and imaginative playwrights.
