Long Day's Journey
Into Night
by Eugene O'Neill

trayal, written in a time of acute
psychological stress, of the play–
wright himself and those closest
to him. Performed all over the

The Vision of Tragedy
by Richard B. Sewall
One of the most highly acclaimed
critical studies in many years,
this
book offers a far-reaching
analysis of the nature of tragedy
from Job to the present. "Each
chapter is a little jewel, a miracle
of brevity and relevance, a com–
pact expression of sensitive com–
ment and of fresh insight."
-Eliseo Vivas

Views of Jeopardy
by
Jack
Gilbert
This is the latest volume in the
distinguished Yale Series of
Younger Poets. Gilbert's spare
lyric style is perfectly suited to
his subjects--the harshness of
reality in love and the intensity
of modern experience.
