Magnum Opus

An original and provocative analysis of Eugene O'Neill's unfinished cycle play project From 1935 to 1939, Eugene O'Neill worked on a series of plays that would trace the history of an American family through several generations. He completed just two of the proposed eleven plays-- A Touch of the Poet and More Stately Mansions --which Zander Brietzke argues represent the core of the entire cycle.
