The 1987 Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama
From August Wilson, author of The Piano Lesson and the 1984-85 Broadway season's best play, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, is another powerful, stunning dramatic work that has won him numerous critical acclaim including the 1987 Tony Award for Best Play and the Pulitzer Prize. The protagonist of Fences (part of Wilson’s ten-part “Pittsburgh Cycle” plays), Troy Maxson, is a strong man, a hard man. He has had to be to survive. Troy Maxson has gone through life in an America where to be proud and black is to face pressures that could crush a man, body and soul. But the1950s are yielding to the new spirit of liberation in the 1960s... a spirit that is changing the world Troy Maxson has learned to deal with the only way he can...a spirit that is making him a stranger, angry and afraid, in a world he never knew and to a wife and son he understands less and less...

現實主義的、得體的、略帶那種agreeable melancholy的、細緻而又豐富的作品,就像黑人音樂一樣迷人
评分CSP 13。讀的第一本全部黑人英語的書,一開始不太適應,到act 2就比較順瞭。作者以前果然是寫詩的,歌詞和開頭的詩都很贊。劇本身探討的是1960年左右的黑人的美國夢。普利策奬嘛。不過其實我很懷疑有些點主題的句子從這些角色嘴裏說齣來會不會很怪異,尤其是長篇的那些。。
评分It's a great book to know about African American culture. The language is so authentic.
评分Very much like Death of a Salesman, with conflicts between fathers and sons. While Miller talks about the disillusion of the American dream of white working class, Wilson focuses on the black.
评分可讀性很強!因為Marylou老師,這本書永遠是我心中的白月光~
