'A beautifully structured narrative: tough, very moving, a
political testimony of considerable force' - Harold Pinter 'As wise
and witty and funny and brave as any of his plays' - Louis
Auchincloss 'Wholly admirable' - Anthony Burgess ______________
Arthur Miller's plays have held the world's stages for almost half
a century. Among them are Death of a Salesman, The Crucible, and
All My Sons, which have been read and performed countless times
across the world. His memoir, Timebends, shows that the life of the
man is as compelling as his plays. With passion, wit and candour,
Miller recalls his childhood in Harlem and Brooklyn in the 1920s
and the Depression; his successes and failures in the theatre and
in Hollywood; the formation of his political beliefs that, two
decades later, brought him into confrontations with the House
Committee of Un-American Activities; and his later work on behalf
of human rights as the president of PEN International. He writes
with astonishing perception and tenderness of Marilyn Monroe, his
second wife, as well as the host of famous and infamous characters
that have intersected with his adventurous life. Revealing and
deeply moving, Timebends is Miller's love letter to the twentieth
century: its energy, its humour, its chaos and moral struggles.
