Also included in this unique collection is the little-known and highly autobiographical play \u003ci\u003eThe Straw\u003c\/i\u003e, which draws on O'Neill's confinement in the Gaylord Farm Sanatorium.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780141186702\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.00w x 0.90d","brand":"Eugene O'Neill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44507342700725,"sku":"9780141186702","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_a9d2bf78-2ef3-4c2c-8cbf-1fd45ae419cf.jpg?v=1722311852","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/early-plays-9780141186702","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
