The writer, Tennessee Williams, was introduced into fame and made prey to the forties' equal of literary paparazzi because of it. The play revolves around a young guy begrudgingly behind the household his father has abandoned. Additionally, it offers a painfully shy and somewhat crippled sister personality, whose preoccupation with a collection of glass animals draws her away in reality.

OK, so you never dwelt at the Great Depression. We did not either. Or abandoned your household for Jolly-Roger-style adventure. But have you ever called your mother an average name at the warmth of the moment? Or attempted to live your own personal lifestyle but gotten hassled about it?

We mean, the man is twenty-one and stuck in a tiny apartment with a mother who will not let him drink along with a sister who's desperately single. Could you imagine trying to manage all that? Toss in fantasies of being a writer, the very fact that your father abandoned you, and also a dull job in a shoe store. The point is, things suck for Tom. But at the exact same time, he really has an obligation -- the household will completely endure without him. Pretty persuasive, if you ask us.

Emma Jane Austen

Published in 1815, Emma was written in the height of Jane Austen's popularity. The Prince Regent, George, did Austen the "favor" of allowing her to devote Emma to him. Austen likely wasn't so excited about the possibility of dedicating her novel to a man who was, by all accounts, dissipated, drunk, and superficial. George set the standards of "gentlemanlike" behavior during his time. According to him, fashionable men were dandies -- the kind who would ride sixteen miles to London only to get a......Read More
