Drama
Krutch, Joseph Wood | February 27, 1929 issue

No other temperament so completely subjective as that of Eugene O'Neill has ever been attracted to the contemporary theater, and no one else in the U.S. has ever written plays which are so frankly the expression of an individual quest for the meaning of existence. Those persons who still expect to find in them some mirror held up to external nature will be more baffled than ever by the new play which the Guild has produced at the Martin Beck, but those who are capable, of understanding O'Neill's intentions will find it, like all his recent plays, the expression of a profoundly brooding and passionately thirsty soul.
