Behrman, Robert Sherwood, John Steinbeck, William Saroyan--Five famous American plays of the 1930s: 1) "Awake and Sing"--Odets' rebellious and compassionate story of a struggling Jewish family in the Bronx. 2) "End of Summer"--Behrman's spirited comedy about a beautiful woman of the idle rich confronted with reality and the challenge of a new generation. 3) "Idiot's Delight"--Sherwood's prophetic and tragicomic commentary on the mad game of war. 4) "Of Mice and Men"--Steinbeck's famous story about two lonely, itinerant workers, a homeless halfwit and his friend George, whose dream ends in tragedy. 5) "The Time of Your Life"--Saroyan's delightful portrayal of a group of bizarre unfortunates who inhabit a San Francisco waterfront saloon. -- amazon.com
