Early printing of O’Neill’s classic play. Octavo, original cloth. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket with just a touch of shelfwear.

Set in New England just after the end of the Civil War, Mourning Becomes Electra is O'Neill's three part reworking of themes from Greek tragedy. This adaptation of Aeschylus' Oresteia by one of America's greatest playwrights is a landmark in the history of theatre.
