Description
Summary:In his "Apologia and Acknowledgments," he comments that he "sought a balance between ... popular staples and . . . some obscure ones" (x). [...]the part of the book concerned with Tennessee Williams contains an analysis of The Glass Menagerie as well as a full chapter on The Lady of Larkspur Lotion; the part on Saroyan avoids the obvious choice of The Time of Your Life in favor of the lesser known Hello Out There; and the part on Arthur Miller contains full chapters on both Death of a Salesman and After the Fall. [...]the book lacks an index. Any actor seeking to understand her craft better will find a treasure trove of wisdom from a master teacher. [...]anyone interested in the mind and method of Stella Adler herself will find yet another distillation of her vibrant criticism and sparkling presence.
