| This text examines the ever-present element of anger in the drama of August Wilson. It focuses on the male rage and female frustration of Wilson's characters. The causes of the characters' anger are evaluated, and issues such as race and economics are applied as factors in the revelation of the ways in which Wilson's men and women cope with and eventually resolve their rage. The resulting research on anger ultimately provides answers about the growth of Wilson as a playwright, ways in which real people can learn from Wilson's characters, and insight into race relations in America. |
