Arthur Miller clearly enjoys militantly civil conversation. Perhaps
the most remarkable feature of Miller in interview is his
willingness to answer question after question with grace and
substance, with a sense of social commitment and metaphysical
curiosity.
These interviews complement the plays and his more formal and
well-known theater essays, revealing his dramatic and aesthetic
theories, his concern with language and structure, his awareness of
the inner reality of his characters and how these concerns broaden
to highlight universal social and metaphysical issues. Miller in
conversation provides a unique insight into both the dramatic works
and the man behind those works.
Through forty years of the best of Miller interviews, similar
concerns surface, but with one crucial difference: the
actor/audience barrier is minimized, and the listener is left with
the delightful prospect of engaging Miller, not through Willy Loman
or Kate Keller, or through critics "interpreting" the plays, but
through the very person who reinvented so much of contemporary
drama.
