Description: IN THIS ISSUE
The personal diaries of Edwina Dakin Williams, Tennessee Williams's strong-willed and long-suffering mother, take center stage. Housed in HNOC's Fred W. Todd Tennessee Williams Collection and published together in full for the first time, Edwina's entries offer a powerful view of young Tom Williams's tumultuous, sometimes violent childhood. John S. Bak's in-depth introduction and notes provide crucial context as readers immerse themselves in the raw material that Williams would eventually transform into The Glass Menagerie's unforgettable Amanda Wingfield.

Essays inside the issue shed new light on the shocking production of Jean Cocteau's French adaptation of A Streetcar Named Desire, explores homoeroticism in Williams's paintings, and investigates three as yet unpublished works by the playwright.
