I ordered the book 'Our Town', and paid for express delivery. The book I got was the wrong one. The vendor says it's due to Amazon's order entry system. While they did refund everything I paid, including delivery, I still had to go elsewhere because they didn't have this book, and, worse, I lost a bunch of time in eventually getting this book.
I needed a copy of Our Town in a hurry.I found one on Amazon for 1 cent. I chose expedited delivery and got it just in time.
The introduction in this version is helpful and clues the reader to appreciate and look for the deep message of the play. I've enjoyed reading this version of Thornton Wilder's, "Our Town". It's a short, 3 act play but nevertheless is huge in its message. It was through the study of this publication I felt renewed in my love for life. A quick read and well worth the time.
What can I say, it is the script to Our Town. I have found a couple of places where it differes from the Samuel French script by a sentence or two.One VERY GOOD difference is that THIS script also has a lot of background on Thornton Wilder and the times that the existed when the play was writen and first produced.
I don't understand why people are saying bad things about Our Town, because it is a very wonderful play with three acts, centering around a small town, Grover's Corners in New Hampshire and the lives of two families, the Gibbs family and the Webb family.It is a very wonderful play about life in small town before cars and electronics and how they lived. It is a beautiful play that is very excellent and everybody should read it, for it is a quick read, but a very delightful play.
