These tales were penned by one Thomas Lanier Williams of Missouri before he became a successful playwright, and yet his voice is unmistakable.

The reliable idiosyncrasies and quiet dignity of Williamss eccentrics are already present in his characters. Consider the diminutive octogenarian of The Caterpillar Dogs, who may have just met her match in a pair of laughing Pekinese that refuse to obey; the retired, small-town evangelist in Every Friday Nite is Kiddies Nite, who wears bright-coloured pyjamas and receives a message from God to move to St. Louis and finally, finally go to the movies again; or the distraught factory worker whose stifled artistic spirit, and just a soupēon of the macabre, propel the drama of Stair to the Roof.

Loves diversions and misdirections, even autoerotic longings, are found in these delightful lagniappes: in Season of Grapes, the intoxicating ripeness of summer in the Ozarks acquaints one young man with his own passions, which turn into a fever dream, and the first revelation of female sexuality blooms for a college boy in Ironweed. Is there such a thing as innocence? Apparently in the 1930s there was, and Williams reveals it in these stories.

"Williamss ear for dialogue, his eye for character and his dramatic gifts are as powerful in his stories as they are in his plays." -- John Berendt - The New York Times

 Tennessee Williams (19111983) was Americas most influential playwright. Readers have devoured his poetry, essays, short stories, and letters, as well as his fantastic late plays, his remarkable corpus of one-acts, and his greatest playsThe Glass Menagerie, A Streetcar Named Desire, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, The Night of the Iguana, The Rose Tattoo, Suddenly Last Summer, and Camino Real. Williams is a cornerstone of New Directionswe publish everything he wrote. He is also our single bestselling author.

Theater director and Tennessee Williams scholar Tom Mitchell is professor emeritus at the University of Illinois, Champaign Urbana. He has directed all of Williamss early full-length plays and adapted several of Williamss unpublished short stories for the stage.
