W/ no uniquely American tradition to guide him, O'Neill introduced various dramatic techniques, which subsequently became staples of the U.S. theater. By 1914 he had written 12 one-act and 2 long plays. Of this early work, only "Thirst and Other One-act plays" (1914) was originally published. From this point on, O'Neill's work falls roughly into 3 phases to which the three volumes of this SUPERB complete edition approximately correspond: Volume I: the early plays, written from 1913 to 1921 ("The Long Voyage Home", "The Moon of the Caribbees", "Beyond the Horizon", "Anna Christie"); Volume II: a variety of full-length plays for Broadway ("Desire Under the Elms"; "Great God Brown"; "Ah, Wilderness!"); & Volume III: the last, great plays, written between 1938 & his death ( "The Iceman Cometh", "Long Day's Journey Into Night", "A Moon for the Misbegotten"). Eugene O'Neill is a 4-time Pulitzer Prize winner, & he was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1936. * THE LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an award-winning, nonprofit program dedicated to publishing authoritative texts of America's best & most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes.
