Winner of the 1931 Pulitzer Prize for drama (for \u003ci\u003eAlison's House\u003c\/i\u003e), she was cofounder of the Provincetown Players, the little theater that \"discovered\" O'Neill. Later, Glaspell was instrumental in introducing American drama to English audiences when her play \u003ci\u003eThe Verge\u003c\/i\u003e was produced in London. Yet despite her many accomplishments, Glaspell is often overlooked in the standard histories of American theater. Now, Barbara Ozieblo returns this intriguing and important figure to the spotlight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOzieblo combines an engaging narrative of Glaspell's life with insightful analysis of her creative works. Rebelling early against the expectations imposed on women of her era, Glaspell grappled with the conflict between Victorian mores and feminist aspirations throughout her life. In \u003ci\u003eTrifles\u003c\/i\u003e, now recognized as a groundbreaking feminist drama, she explored the reasons for a woman's extreme response to her husband's demanding, authoritarian stance. Ozieblo also investigates Glaspell's relationship with dramatist George Cram Cook, exploring the scandal that surrounded their courtship and marriage as well as the life they led among the bohemians of Greenwich Village. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barbara Ozieblo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of North Carolina Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/16\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.29h x 5.78w x 0.89d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807848685\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2000 pg. 81\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2000 pg. 313\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2001 pg. 1274\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/05\/2001 pg. 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eOzieblo, Barbara:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Barbara Ozieblo teaches American literature and women's studies at the University of Malaga in Spain.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of North Carolina Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40161651556467,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_c4357705-efdc-4a87-bb72-057be3f4ab8a.jpg?v=1654955664","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/susan-glaspell-a-critical-biography-9780807848685","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
