具體描述
A sizzling drama of desire, avarice and deception set in the American Deep South, Tennessee Williams's Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is publish ed in Penguin Modern Classics.'Big Daddy' Pollitt, the richest cotton planter in the Mississippi Delta, is about to celebrate his sixty-fifth birthday. His two sons have returned home for the occasion: Gooper, his wife and children, Brick, an ageing football hero who has turned to drink, and his feisty wife Maggie. As the hot summer evening unfolds, the veneer of happy family life and Southern gentility gradually slips away as unpleasant truths emerge and greed, lies, jealousy and suppressed sexuality threaten to reach boiling point. Made into a film starring Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is a masterly portrayal of family tensions and individuals trapped in prisons of their own making.
用戶評價
##寫的最傳神的並非美麗動人的貓女maggie也不是性嚮變幻莫測的英俊球星Brick，而是練達人生又對人生無可奈何的Big parents.
評分##就是這一本把，問Vojta藉的，每天早上翻幾頁也翻瞭半個月。每個人都是熱鐵皮上的貓把。Big mama,Big daddy,magrite,brick,~~還有那種在燙腳鐵皮上的關係。Brick和Magrite,Big mama和Big daddy這種關係都是悲劇把。愛情，親情。
評分##cat on a hot tin roof，好比喻也經不起反復用，靈氣受摺磨。 Broadway Version結局不如原版，強求人物發狠，突變太多。Williams的解釋是，"Brick should undergo some apparent mutation"，但想沒想過，醉鬼真的隻希望跪在爛攤子裏流點眼淚，他不要變，要酒。非把玻璃裂痕都熔瞭，捏作新玻璃，說這是人的崛起，之後再不會碎，以為這麼更聰明。殊不知最好的就是那一個碎，全毀瞭最聰明。

評分##想要瞭解美國南部口音，究竟是多麼粗暴的魅力，就在這裏瞭。

評分##“Mendacity is a system that we live in. Liquor is one way out and death’s the other.”
評分人物性格塑造得很鮮明，戲劇的題目直接道齣瞭主人公的處境，而作者又沒有賦予瞭其過多的對白，沒有詳細點明她的處境如何，反而是用他人來襯托她，慢慢讀下去，maggie的性格就都呈現齣來瞭。
評分##還是更喜歡《欲望》，那部裏麵衝突的核心沒有這裏具象化，可能我更喜歡戲劇裏那種個人或某一特殊群體的絕境吧。Brick有點讓我想起Hemingway那些主人公，the additional charm of that cool air of detachment that people who have gicen up the struggle, 不過他是被動的。包括Maggie the cat，這部是關於一種焦灼，從現實來的脅迫感。
