Their guide, a former Protestant priest who suffered a nervous breakdown, found himself in the center of attention of several ladies at once... The priest's daughter has been in love since childhood with a young man literally possessed by internal demons. He reciprocates her feelings, but both of them do not notice how the cruel darkness gradually breaking out of him leaves an imprint on her life... This collection includes four legendary plays by Tennessee Williams: “Orpheus Descends into Hell”, “Sweet-voiced Bird of Youth”, “Night of the Iguana” " and "Summer and the breath of winter", united by the themes of destructive love and frightening loneliness in a crowd.
