O'Neill's long day's journey on Black's couch. Black's 543-page biography is filled with interestinginformation about his subject's troubled life.We learn, for instance,O'Neill was born in a hotel room in 1888, and died in a hotel room in 1953. In between, he lived "a life of earthly and psychic wandering"(p. 43).At the time of his birth, O'Neill's mother became addicted tomorphine, for which he blamed himself.As a mother, Ella O'Neill was"lonely" and "inadequate" (pp. 48, 51).O'Neill'sfather, an actor, was "revered," though "distant" (p.47).O'Neill's estranged daughter, Oona, married Charlie Chaplin when shewas 17.Chaplin was 54, and two month's younger than O'Neill.We learnthat O'Neill's life was plagued with, among other things (and the list islong), illness, depression, alcoholism, family tension, unhappy marriages,and one devastating death after another.Truly, it is a wonder O'Neillever found his way through the obstacles in his life to write four PulitzerPrize winning plays, and to win the Nobel Prize in literature in1936. Black's book also contains plenty of perceptive commentary aboutO'Neill's plays.It ends with an impressive bibliography.Although Ioccasionally found O'Neill spending too much time on Black's couch in thispsychoanalytical biography, this is nevertheless a worthwhile book foranyone interested in the playwright or his writing.

"The past is the present, isn't it? It's the future, too."
It's indeed a long journey taken by eachTyrone
It's indeed a long journey taken by eachTyrone
shattering! a revelation of fragile human lives. read it if you feel down in the dumps. strangely, it promises a glimmer of hope in the enveloping 'fog' ofdespair.
Spiritual Nightfall The story unfolds in the course of a single day, which begins with an emergence from the fog, both literally and figuratively and ends with the descent of the fog yet again, deeper, more profound, more isolating than ever. The youngest son, Edmund is the pivot point for the story.The other members of his family revolve around the drama of his failing health.He is represented by his family as both the cause and the victim of his mother's return to her addiction, his jealous brother's attempts to destroy his chances for success and his father's dissatisfaction with his life.And he accepts the responsibility thrust on him, all the while recognizing, acknowledging that it is merely an excuse for failures and bad choices. The family, despite their best efforts, is bound together, caught in a web of their own creation, unable to escape eventual destruction.It is a sad commentary of life, poignant and fascinating.In spite of some dated references, it still provides an insightful look at the human condition. ...

Editorial Review Book Description A profoundly private individual, O'Neill struggled throughout his life toovercome his intense discomfort with oral discourse as he responded to theprobings of interviewers wishing him to discuss a wide range of social,political, literary, and theatrical issues. Collected in their entirety for the first time, these interviews begin in1920, when O'Neill was thirty-two. Serious American drama, for many, beganand, for many others, ended with Eugene O'Neill. This collection lends newtestimony to the truth of that assertion. |
