The Plays of Tennessee Williams

The proposed book aims to present a critical analysis of the theme of sexual maladjustment and its variations in the major plays of Tennessee Williams. In depictions of all the vulgarity, violence, homosexuality, cannibalism, his view of life seems to be "pessimistic, morbid and tragic". He is considered as the shrewd observer of moral deformity of his age. But all the charges of morbidity and pessimism are irrelevant and unjustified as a careful study of his plays will bring out.
