This beautiful new edition features an eye-opening Afterword written by Tappan Wilder that includes Thornton Wilder's unpublished notes and other illuminating photographs and documentary material. Our Town was first produced and published in 1938 to wide acclaim.

懷爾德在美國文學史上有著特殊的地位,他是唯一同時榮膺普利策戲劇奬和小說奬的美國作傢。作為劇作傢,他更是與尤金•奧尼爾、阿瑟•米勒、田納西•威廉斯齊名,並稱為美國四大現代戲劇傢。懷爾德為美國現代戲劇的靈魂人物與先驅,被譽為“二十世紀美國最後一位寓言傢”。

Our town, our life... “That's what it was to be alive.To move about in a cloud of ignorance; to go up and down trampling on the feelings of those...of those about you. To spend and waste time as though you had a million years. To be always at the mercy of one self-centered passion, or another.”
