Tennessee Williams (Bloom's Modern Critical Views)

Tennessee Williams is recognized as one of America's greatest dramatists, and as an innovator of post-World War II theater. He looked for a mechanism for portraying the truth in theater at a time when traditional approaches no longer worked. Bold with form as well as subject matter, Williams confronted audiences with what had been taboo topics - sexuality, societal constraints, alcoholism, and brutality. His notable contributions to literature include "The Glass Menagerie", "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof", and "A Streetcar Named Desire".
