"Тези истории са истинската биография на Тенеси Уилямс. В тях се съдържа всичко - реално или въображаемо, което се е случило с него."
Гор Видал
Тенеси Уилямс е известен с това, че много е държал да пише абсолютно всяка сутрин. Дори в най-трудните мигове - оплаквайки скъп човек. или под влиянието на наркотици (по едно или друго време опитва повечето от тях) — той неизменно е писал. Разказите в този сборник представят всеки един период в дългия му живот -от лудите младежки години в Сейнт Луис до дните му на холивудска знаменитост. Някои разкази са студии на негови пиеси и подобно на тях, езикът им внезапно ни изненадва с поетичен образ, който блести като скъпоценен камък

Tennessee Williams

Thomas Lanier Williams III, better known by the nickname Tennessee Williams, was a major American playwright of the twentieth century who received many of the top theatrical awards for his work. He moved to New Orleans in 1939 and changed his name to "Tennessee," the state of his father's birth.

Raised in St. Louis, Missouri, after years of obscurity, at age 33 he became famous with the success of The Glass Menagerie (1944) in New York City. This play closely reflected his own unhappy family background. It was the first of a string of successes, including A Streetcar Named Desire (1947), Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955), Sweet Bird of Youth (1959), and The Night of the Iguana (1961). With his later work, he attempted a new style that did not appeal to audiences. His drama A Streetcar Named Desire is often numbered on short lists of the finest American plays of the 20th century, alongside Eugene O'Neill's Long Day's Journey into Night and Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman.

Much of Williams' most acclaimed work has been adapted for the cinema. He also wrote short stories, poetry, essays and a volume of memoirs. In 1979, four years before his death, Williams was inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame.

Всъщност ако трябва да прецизирам, оценката ми е между 3 и 4. Има попадения между тях, но само някои от разказите ми харесаха. Друго положително е, че са разнообразни като тематика и герои. Да, определено си ги бива!
