Sweet Bird of Youth book by Tennessee Williams
By Tennessee WilliamsSweet Bird of Youth book by Tennessee Williams
The very title of Sweet Bird of Youth is one of ironic pity. The two chief characters--a raddled has-been actress from Hollywood, seeking to forget her present in drugs and sex, and her still handsome masseur-gigolo, who has brought her to his hometown in the South, believing that through her money and faded glamor his gaudy illusions may yet come true--are the reverse side of the American dream of youth. Yet as they work out their fate amid violence and horror, there is nevertheless a note of compassion for the damned. Published By New Directions Publishing on 1975
