This is more than a writer''s craft, it is a psychological and moral openness to humanity, an act not of imitating, but of sharing\". \u003ci\u003eSunday Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThis fourth anthology features Arthur Miller''s two early plays, \u003ci\u003eThe Golden Years\u003c\/i\u003e, a historical tragedy about Montezuma''s destruction at the hands of Cortez, and \u003ci\u003eThe Man Who Had All the Luck\u003c\/i\u003e, a fable about human freedom and individual responsibility, are brought together in this volume. It also features two of his contemporary shorter plays, \u003ci\u003eI Can''t Remember Anything\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eClara\u003c\/i\u003e, first presented on a double bill as \u003ci\u003eDanger! Memory\u003c\/i\u003e.
