Synopsis "The Roman Spring of mrs Stone (Vintage Classics) "

Mrs Stone changed from a famous, rich American actress to a notorious, very rich American widow. But the transition took years and all that time her youth and legendary beauty slipped away. So she escapes to Rome. But even the distractions of the Eternal City cannot stop old age wrinkling its way into her life. Frantic, she decides to take a lover, a young and very handsome Italian, being prepared to invest in his body for good return. But the price is too expensive. Not in money, but in her dignity.

(Mississippi, 1911 - New York, 1983) Thomas Lanier Williams III, better known by his stage name Tennessee Williams, was a prominent American playwright. He graduated with a degree in Philosophy and Letters from the University of Iowa, and in 1948 he won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for A Streetcar Named Desire, and in 1955 for Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Critics of the genre maintain that Williams wrote in a Southern Gothic style. His characters are often alien to social conventions. His work is well-known because many were made into films, with scripts by Tennessee Williams himself in most cases.
