Eugene ONeills autobiographical play Long Days Journey into Night is regarded as his finest work. First published by Yale University Press in 1956, it won the Pulitzer Prize in 1957 and has since sold more than one million copies. This edition includes a new foreword by Harold Bloom.By common consent, Long Days Journey into Night is Eugene ONeills masterpiece. . . . The helplessness of family love to sustain, let alone heal, the wounds of marriage, of parenthood, and of sonship, have never been so remorselessly and so pathetically portrayed, and with a force of gesture too painful ever to be forgotten by any of us.--Harold Bloom, from the forewordOnly an artist of ONeills extraordinary skill and perception can draw the curtain on the secrets of his own family to make you peer into your own. Long Days Journey into Night is the most remarkable achievement of one of the worlds greatest dramatists.--Jose Quintero The play is an invaluable key to its authors creative evolution. It serves as the Rosetta Stone of ONeills life and art.--Barbara Gelb The definitive edition of a play of old sorrow, written in tears and blood, as ONeill described it in dedicating it to his wife, Carlotta.--Boston Globe
