The Glass Menagerie
Tennessee William's
first play is closely representative of his own life, launching his career as a playwright. The plot is emotionally heavy, focusing on issues of abandonment and inferiority. When a father leaves his family behind, a mother, daughter, and son struggle to cope. It is the daughter who has the most significant trouble adjusting, and the mother enlists the son's help to revive her. The plot continues to unfold, making
The Glass Menagerie an important but serious drama that seizes upon the darker elements of human relationships.
