Description
The digital edition of all books may be viewed on our website before purchase. Tragedy of Success is a play that takes place over the course of five acts: Sentence, Appeal, Flight, Pursuit, and Rescue. It is the story of slavery in the Southern United States, and tells the tale of a group of slaves escaping from terrible conditions on a plantation. Putnam's story is one of love and loss, and is both tragic and triumphant. The play is told poetically, and is actually one part of an even larger poem. The central characters are a group of slaves and the landowners from whom they are escaping.
Tragedy of Success is a beautifully written poetic drama of, a genre of which very few are written in modern times. Putnam creates a story and brings it to life with wonderfully constructed verse. It is a work that can be enjoyed as written, or one that would be an ideal candidate to be restaged and presented to an audience.
Tragedy of Success is a little known masterpiece. It is a great story brought to life by the extraordinarily talented Mary Lowell Putnam. Any reader interested in dramatic poems will likely find this to be a highly enthralling work.
