Fülszöveg

Carlota Monterey O'Neill
Eugene O'Neill was born in New York in 1888. As a young man he travelled much of the world by land and sea, and his early life was hard and often desperate. At twenty-four it was found that he had tuberculosis and he was forced to rest in a sanatorium. During the five months spent there he discovered his vocation for writing.
His father was an accomplished actor of the old school, and the son had occasionally toured with him playing small parts. He was always a rebel, but he had a profound knowledge, both of the world he rebelled against, and of the forms of his art with which he never ceased to experi-ment.
By the age of thirty his genius was almost undisputed, and he was recognized as America's leading dramatist. In 1956 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. He died in 1953. His contribution to twentieth-century drama is of unsurpassed importance.
