19841121New York: Albondocani Press. 1984. Limited/Numbered Edition. Softcover. Fine. This short play may be viewed as grotesque and horrific. The four unsympathetic characters wade through sadomasochistic relationships of psychological torture and manipulation plus the sexual and other physical abuse of a physically disabled person. In the context of the many miserable and brutal characters of Tennessee Williams' previous plays this may be the culminating expression of Williams' thinking. Tennessee Williams did not publish this in his lifetime possibly because it was too hot for the trade press to touch but through his agent he arranged to have Albondocani Press publish a limited fine press edition. Williams died before this took place and the edition was published posthumously by his estate. This play remains outside of Williams' usual canon and is performed on stage only sporadically and seldom. This is copy 120 of a limited edition of 150 numbered copies. This Small 8vo book is 8" x 6 1/2" unpaginated and 36 pages. Set in Palatino types and printed on Antique Laid paper. Sewn into Swedish marbled French-flapped wraps over stiff black wraps. Printed and bound by Nancy King and William Ferguson founder of both Metacom Press and Halty Ferguson Publishing. The press' single-leaf prospectus is laid in. Both book and prospectus are clean and in Fine condition.; Small 8vo 7½" - 8" tall; 36 pages . Albondocani Press paperback
