The definitive biography of America's greatest playwright told by the longtime drama critic of The New Yorker. John Lahr has produced a theater biography like no other that gives intimate access to the mind of one of the most brilliant playwrights of his century, whose plays reshaped the American theater and the nation's sense of itself. In the sensational saga of Williams's rise and fall, Lahr captures not just the man's tempestuous public persona but also his backstage life.
