具体描述
Winner of the 2008 Pulitzer Prize for Drama"A tremendous achievement in American playwriting: a tragicomic populist portrait of a tough land and a tougher people."-"Time Out New York""Tracy Letts' "August: Osage County" is what O'Neill would be writing in 2007. Letts has recaptured the nobility of American drama's mid-century heyday while still creating something entirely original."-"New York" magazineOne of the most bracing and critically acclaimed plays in recent Broadway history, "August: Osage County" is a portrait of the dysfunctional American family at its finest-and absolute worst. When the patriarch of the Weston clan disappears one hot summer night, the family reunites at the Oklahoma homestead, where long-held secrets are unflinchingly and uproariously revealed. The three-act, three-and-a-half-hour mammoth of a play combines epic tragedy with black comedy, dramatizing three generations of unfulfilled dreams and leaving not one of its thirteen characters unscathed. After its sold-out Chicago premiere, the play has electrified audiences in New York since its opening in November 2007.Tracy Letts is the author of "Killer Joe," "Bug," and "Man from Nebraska," which was a finalist for the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. His plays have been performed throughout the country and internationally. A performer as well as a playwright, Letts is a member of the Steppenwolf Theatre Company, where "August: Osage County" premiered.

评分一直觉得作者在写的时候一直在问自己"如果把某某情况再往前推两步会导致什么结果？”戏剧张力相当棒，每个人的个性都很饱满。没啥讨喜的不讨喜的角色，大家面对的问题不一样而已。
评分##每个人的背后都有着一段激励掩藏的过去。即使是母女、姐妹、母子、夫妻，没有戳破的假象，到底该如何维持？而当假象一个个被戳穿，大打出手应该就是第一反应了吧？

评分##sharp and adorable, weird euphoria
评分##Tracy Letts不仅因此剧本获得了托尼奖，几年后还获了13年托尼奖话剧类的最佳男演员（作品是《灵欲春宵》），真是让我难以置信。电影好看，特地来看剧本，果然剧本更胜一筹。——15.02.10
评分##适合X-mas的家庭大剧
