Produktinformationen zu „Long Day's Journey into Night (ePub)“
Long Day's Journey into Night unfolds as an intimate and deeply poignant exploration of a family's struggles with addiction, illness, and the relentless pursuit of understanding and redemption. Set in 1912, the Tyrone family-James, the patriarch; Mary, the matriarch; and their sons, Jamie and Edmund-confront their inner demons and familial tensions during the course of a fateful day. As the day unravels, secrets, regrets, and suppressed emotions rise to the surface, revealing the complexities of the Tyrone family dynamics. James Tyrone, a once-aspiring actor now tied to financial concerns, grapples with the weight of his past decisions. Mary Tyrone, haunted by memories and addiction, seeks solace in the past, drifting between moments of lucidity and haunting illusions. Jamie, the elder son, struggles with his own vices and a sense of futility, while the consumptive Edmund, the younger son, confronts the shadows cast by his family's struggles. The play unfolds as a powerful examination of the human condition, exploring themes of guilt, denial, and the profound impact of personal choices on the bonds that tie families together. A masterpiece of American drama, "Long Day's Journey into Night" is a testament to Eugene O'Neill's unparalleled skill in capturing the complexities of human relationships and the enduring repercussions of the past on the present.
Autoren-Porträt von Eugene O'Neill
Eugene O'Neill (1888-1953) was an Irish-American playwright. His poetically titled plays were among the first to introduce into the U.S. the drama techniques of realism. O'Neill was awarded the 1936 Nobel Prize in Literature. He is also the only playwright to win four Pulitzer Prizes for Drama. O'Neill's plays were among the first to include speeches in American English vernacular and involve characters on the fringes of society. They struggle to maintain their hopes and aspirations, but ultimately slide into disillusion and despair. Nearly all of his other plays involve some degree of tragedy and personal pessimism.
