biographer
Donald
Spoto
gives
us
not
only
a
full
and
accurate
account
of
Williams's
life,
he
also
reveals
the
intimate
connections
between
the
playwright's
personal
dramas
and
his
remarkably
autobiographical
art.
From
his
birth
into
a
genteel
Southern
family,
through
his
success,
celebrity,
and
wealth,
to
his
drug
addictions,
promiscuity,
and
creative
struggles,
Tennessee
Williams
lived
a
life
as
gripping
as
his
plays.The
Kindness
of
Strangers,based
on
Williams's
own
papers,
his
mother's
diaries,
and
interviews
with
scores
of
friends,
lovers,
and
professional
associates,
is,
in
the
author's
words,
a
portrait
of
"a
man
more
disturbing,
more
dramatic,
richer
and
more
wonderful
than
any
character
he
created."
