By Tennessee Williams
"Caedmon is proud to release this archival full-cast recording of Tennessee Williams's "A Streetcar Named Desire" on cd for the first time!
Blanche DuBois arrives at her sister Stella's New Orleans apartment seeking refuge from a troubled past--but her ethereal spirit irks Stella's husband, the loutish Stanley Kowalski. Crudely, relentlessly, he unmasks the lies and delusions that sustain Blanche, until her frail hold on reality is shockingly severed.
This atmospheric recording of Tennessee Williams's powerful classic stars Rosemary Harris and James Farentino as Blanche and Stanley--roles they performed to acclaim in a smash revival at New York's Lincoln Center."  (Publisher Description)

Find This Compact Disk

By Arthur Miller

" Arthur Miller's deeply moving drama reunites two long estranged middle-aged brothers. Nostalgia and recrimination erupt as they sell off an attic full 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."  (Publisher Marketing)

Women's Figures: An Illustrated Guide to the Economic Progress of Women in America (2012) (2ND ed.)

"The myth that women make 78 cents on a man s dollar is a standard refrain in popular media and serves as a rationale for affirmative action for women. Unstated is that for women and men with the same job and work experience, the wage gap practically disappears. In Women s Figures, Manhattan Senior Fellow Diana Furchtgott-Roth shatters the myth of the wage gap. Women are continuing to gain ground relative to men, and in some cases, they have even reversed the gender gap. Rather than helping women, preferential policies undermine America s idea of meritocracy, and call into question the value of women s hard-earned achievements.
