5.0 out of 5 stars The Main Theme of " A Streetcar Named Desire "
Reviewed in the United States on 26 July 2020

I am a Jew by birth and a Torah Jew by the grace of The L-RD All-Powerful G-d of Israel. As I was raised up among the people of The East in Turkey, ( Please see, Genesis 29:2-3 ) I was acquainted with The Koran. I had started to study The Koran long before, I started to study The Torah and The Talmud at my own pace. For me, Tennessee Williams' " A Streetcar Named Desire " means, The 101st Chapter of The Koran ( The Disaster - " Al-Qari'ah " - ) ( Please see, N.J. Dawood's " The Koran " among Penguin Classics ) retold in the form of a play in a Western Language. Thank you, for making this beautiful play available to me among Kindle e-books and letting me think about it ...

Un attente très longue pour un livre en occasion et en plus de ça un retard. J'avais besoin de ce livre mon un examen de littérature et je n'ai pas pu m'en servir. Je suis très déçue.

5.0 out of 5 stars No Wonder It's a Classic?
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 February 2015

I saw the film years ago! Of course, this is not a novel but a play, and so, you get a script to read? No problem! A couple of pages and you're into it. This is such a great story - believe me!
Blanc is a wonderful character and must be a riot to play, her dialogue is just superb, putting a class barrier of extreme proportions, between her and the working class hero, Stanley, - who actually, is quite rough around the edges, though he does have some logic in the way he works things through?
Stella is loyal to all, happy, a little naïve and a bit of a brick all round. Mitch is a nice guy but eventually ends up heartbroken.
Great characters, great storyline, wonderfully descriptive writing and whilst we couldn't hear the music and see the graphics, it still comes over crystal clear - no wonder it's a classic. I loved it. Finally, just read through the lovely expressions in the glossary - bobby-soxer, red hots, monkey doings, turn the trick, epic fortifications! - just brilliant dialogue!
