The definitive text of this American classic—reissued with an introduction by Edward Albee ( Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and A Delicate Balance ) and Williams' essay "Person-to-Person." Cat on a Hot Tin Roof first heated up Broadway in 1955 with its gothic American story of brothers vying for their dying father's inheritance amid a whirlwind of sexuality, untethered in the person of Maggie the Cat. The play also daringly showcased the burden of sexuality repressed in the agony of her husband, Brick Pollitt. In spite of the public controversy Cat stirred up, it was awarded the Pulitzer Prize and the Drama Critics Circle Award for that year. Williams, as he so often did with his plays, rewrote Cat on a Hot Tin Roof for many years—the present version was originally produced at the American Shakespeare Festival in 1974 with all the changes that made Williams finally declare the text to be definitive, and was most recently produced on Broadway in the 2003-04 season. This definitive edition also includes Williams' essay "Person-to-Person," Williams' notes on the various endings, and a short chronology of the author's life. One of America's greatest living playwrights, as well as a friend and colleague of Williams, Edward Albee has written a concise introduction to the play from a playwright's perspective, examining the candor, sensuality, power, and impact of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof then and now.

评分---"One man has one great good true thing in his life. One great good thing which is true. I had friendship with Skipper. You are naming it dirty."---"I'm not naming it dirty! I'm naming it clean" "I'm naming it so damn clean that it killed Skipper"
评分复杂的感情和激烈的情绪起伏 连布景都旨在烘托气氛 谎言和欺骗令人惊心 同TW一样我也对Maggie有亲近感 置身事外的Brick身上却有着最强烈的戏剧张力 这个角色塑造得太出色了 而更加动人让我决定打五星的是前言 为了打破孤独这座牢笼 为了感受到不易坦承的思绪 让我们交谈 握手 争斗 毁灭 让我们不要温和地走进那个良夜
评分Big Daddy和Brick有关Mendacity的争论很有意思,生活中充满了不实和谎言,Brick的冷漠是对自我的厌弃,清醒意识到又力量不够的人就选择逃避,Mae和Gooper能和它们共存得很好,而Maggie the cat介于其中,对于一只在热铁皮屋顶上的猫来说,胜利只是多在上面呆一秒钟。TW的第三幕更合理,Brick对Maggie突如其来表达的爱慕与他之前表现的冷漠格格不入,我也怀疑一席谈话,不管多么深刻,会带来立竿见影的改变。
