Description
The Straw is a short story written by the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Eugene O'Neill. The story follows a young man named David, who is struggling with alcoholism and depression. David is living in a small town in New England, where he has been sent by his family in the hopes that he will be able to recover from his addiction. However, David finds himself increasingly isolated and alone, with no real purpose or direction in his life.As the story progresses, David becomes more and more desperate, and he begins to experience vivid hallucinations and delusions. He is haunted by the memory of a woman he once loved, who he believes has been taken away from him by a powerful and malevolent force. David's mental state continues to deteriorate, until he is finally driven to the brink of madness.The Straw is a deeply psychological and introspective work, exploring themes of addiction, mental illness, and the search for meaning and purpose in life. O'Neill's writing is powerful and evocative, capturing the bleak and haunting atmosphere of David's world with vivid detail. The story is a haunting and unforgettable portrait of a man struggling to find his way in a world that seems intent on destroying him.THIS 96 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Plays of Eugene O'Neill Including Anna Christie, Beyond the Horizon, Emperor Jones, The Hairy Ape and Days Without End, by Eugene O'Neill.
