The last work from one of the twentieth century's most significant
writers, continuing the semi-autobiographical cycle centring on the
Tyrone family started by Long Day's Journey into Night. James
'Jamie' Tyrone Jnr is a hard-drinking Broadway playboy, trying to
blot out his painful memories of the past by indulging his craven
self-destructive streak. One day he finds that he has wandered to
the home of his salty tenant-farmer Phil Hogan; and Hogan's lusty,
jaded daughter Josie. Under the Connecticut moon, Jamie and Josie
find something in each other they never knew existed - though it is
only when he passes out dead drunk that Josie can really touch him.
But will he still be there when the moon goes? Eugene O'Neill's
play A Moon for the Misbegotten had its world premiere at the
Hartman Theatre in Columbus, Ohio, in 1947. It premiered on
Broadway in 1957. This edition of the play includes a full
introduction, biographical sketch and chronology.
