Overview

Having made his reputation in the 1940s and ‘50s, Arthur Miller continued to write into the twenty-first century, producing his final play in 2004, the year before his death. With little critical, academic, or theatrical attention being paid to his plays after 1968’s The Price, he had one of the longest “late” periods in literary history. This book brings new attention to Miller’s writing from this period, analysing 5 plays—The Archbishop’s Ceiling, Some Kind of Love Story, Clara and The Ride Down Mt. Morgan, Resurrection Blues—and a host of essays to highlight the influence of postmodernism on his work. Using relevant novels and films, these plays are situated within the context of their cultural moments to show that Miller remained an engaged, aware, and contemporary writer until his death.
