Drama Editorial Review
A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams is a classic play that explores a range of themes and packs a punch of drama. The characters are well-developed and the setting is vividly described - readers can practically feel the heat and tension within the story. Although it is assigned in some high school and college classes, readers have found it to be a surprising delight to read. The only downside to this play is that it deals with heavy subject matter that may not be enjoyable for everyone, particularly those who are not fond of stories about family strife and dysfunction.
