Arthur Miller's deeply moving drama reunites two long-estranged middle-aged brothers. Nostalgia and recrimination erupt as they sell off an attic of furniture, their last link to a family and a world that no longer exist. This 1968 classic is a wrenching saga of plaintive gestures and missed opportunities. A BBC co-production.

"I'm not sure what I think. I liked it very much. I feel like I need to re-read it soon. Perhaps very soon. But I want to think on it. I don't think I grasped it all." — Joshua (5 out of 5 stars)
"I'm not sure what I think. I liked it very much. I feel like I need to re-read it soon. Perhaps very soon. But I want to think on it. I don't think I grasped it all."
" How did we ever miss this one until now? "
" The dynamics of the relationships between characters in this are quite fantastic. Miller gets it right time and time again. "
" Really fascinating look at the delusions we live with. Miller -- as always -- shows his mastery of dialogue and his passion for introspection. Great play. "
" A great play for two men. A tale of lost brotherly love, expectations lost, and unknown responsibilities. Throw in a 90 year old Russian-Jew for laughs and you got yourself an entertaining read. "
" This is the best play I've read by Miller. "
" Thought provoking. Reads well despite it's age. "
" This play took a while to really get interesting, but I think the last portion is quite good. I liked the character of Solomon, even though the portrayal of an Eastern European Jewish furniture dealer was a bit stereotypical. "
" A very moving and complex story of choices made. The reading was superb! "
" I love this play. It is a must read. "
