Private, previously unpublished conversations between the author and one of the twentieth century's greatest dramatists bring fresh and surprising insights into the life, motivations and relationships of the playwright behind such seminal works as Death of a Salesman and The Crucible.
Christopher Bigsby and Arthur Miller shared a regular correspondence which stretched over nearly three decades of friendship. Their interaction and collaboration included a unique series of recorded interviews which now bring fresh and surprising perspectives to the life, thought and creative motivations of one of the greatest modern dramatists. The conversations range richly across topics such as the notorious McCarthy trials, the intent behind Miller's own work, and his family dynamics and relationships – including his short-lived marriage to Marilyn Monroe. Containing new insights into Miller's celebrated plays, including extensive meditations on Death of a Salesman and The Crucible, these illuminating interviews also give readers unrivalled access to the playwright himself.

Christopher Bigsby is Emeritus Professor of American Studies at the University of East Anglia, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, and an award-winning novelist and theatre historian. Among his many books are his two-volume biography of Miller along with critical works on twentieth- and twenty-first century American theatre and drama.
