Book Synopsis
Despite the fact that O'Neill is the only American playwright to have won the Nobel Prize for Literature, most of his works are not good. This work examines how O'Neill's failures as a playwright are inspiring and how his disappointments reflect his own theory that tragedy requires failure.
