"Listen to the dialogue: no other American dramatist has this feel
for the ordinary talk of ordinary people, or the knowledge of what
they do. This is more than a writer's craft, it is a psychological
and moral openness to humanity, an act not of imitating, but of
sharing". Sunday Times This fourth anthology features Arthur
Miller's two early plays, The Golden Years, a historical tragedy
about Montezuma's destruction at the hands of Cortez, and The Man
Who Had All the Luck, a fable about human freedom and individual
responsibility, are brought together in this volume. It also
features two of his contemporary shorter plays, I Can't Remember
Anything and Clara, first presented on a double bill as Danger!
Memory. The latter focus on the importance and dangers of
remembering the past, while the early plays, written at the time of
the Second World War, mark the emergence of a drama in which public
issues are rooted in private anxieties and chart the beginning of
Miller's career that was one of the most distinguished in dramatic
history. First produced in 1944 and revived in London in 2008, The
Man Who Had All the Luck is a mesmerising drama in which the
author's brilliance and characteristic qualities are already
evident: The fourth volume of Miller's plays has been reissued with
a new cover and features an introduction by the author and a
chronology of his work.
