Edward Albee (1928-2016) was a central figure in modern American
theatre, and his bold and often experimental theatrical style won
him wide acclaim. This book explores the issues, public and
private, that so influenced Albee's vision over five decades, from
his first great success, The Zoo Story (1959), to his last play,
Me, Myself, & I (2008). Matthew Roudane covers all of Albee's
original works in this comprehensive, clearly structured, and
up-to-date study of the playwright's life and career: in Part I,
the volume explores Albee's background and the historical contexts
of his work; Part II concentrates on twenty-four of his plays,
including Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1962); and Part III
investigates his critical reception. Surveying Albee's relationship
with Broadway, and including interviews conducted with Albee
himself, this book will be of great importance for theatregoers and
students seeking an accessible yet incisive introduction to this
extraordinary American playwright.
