I studied this at school - I enjoyed it much more than the other texts that we studied.

Here's what the back of the book says
"Tennessee Williams's sensuous, atmospheric plays transformed the American stage with their passion, exoticism and vibrant characters who rage against their personal demons and the modern world. In A Streetcar Named Desire fading southern bele Blanche Dubois finds her romantic illusions brutally shattered; The Glass Menagerie portrays an introverted girl trapped in a fantasy world; and Sweet Bird of Youth shows how we are unable to escape 'the enemy, time'.

I'm placing in the quick turn around bookbag.

I have read many many references to 'A streetcar named Desire' that I just have to read it (I read half already while walking on the treadmill this afternoon) however it will continue in the quick turn around book bag as soon as i finish that play, (not going to read the other ones). thanks alice for adding it to the bag.

well it was not what I expected but was o k, It helped to have the hand written notes about the unwritten meanings and feelings of the characters that related to various scenes. I am not entirely sure why the few references to the street car warranted the naming of the play after it but well thats ok to.
This book has been sent off with the bag again on its way to the Northern Territory.

Taken from the QTABB!

I have always wondered what this story was about and now I have the chance to find out.

I was caught up in drama in 'A streetcar named Desire', moving story and sad. The other plays are worth the read too.
