Thornton Wilder had a gift for framing random and ordinary moments of life, an effect he perfected for his audiences. This volume gathers together some of the most respected criticism on the author's work. Examined texts include Our Town and The Skin of Our Teeth. This series is edited by Harold Bloom, Sterling Professor of the Humanities, Yale University; Henry W. and Albert A.
