About This Novel
"All My Sons" is a famous work by the famous playwright Arthur Miller, who is known as "the conscience of American drama". It premiered on Broadway in 1947 and ran for 328 performances. It won many awards including the Tony Award and the New York Drama Critics Circle Award. The story depicts the tragedy of a middle-class family: the sanctimonious father who made a fortune during World War II, the seemingly weak mother who worked hard to maintain the order of the entire family, the pilot's youngest son who mysteriously disappeared during the war, the impulsive and righteous eldest son... Everyone carries inner secrets and maintains a peaceful life with lies. With the visit of the girl next door and the appearance of a letter, people learned the truth about the disappearance of their youngest son three years ago. This seemingly happy family faced disintegration the moment the truth was revealed. The author uses a writing style rich in ancient Greek tragedy to write about the hidden reefs of human nature in modern society, revealing the banal evil beneath the surface of a peaceful life.
