All My Sons is a profound drama set during World War II, capturing the complex relationships and ethical dilemmas within the Keller family. Joe Keller and Steve Deever were business partners who, during the war, produced defective airplane parts leading to the deaths of many men. While Deever faces imprisonment, Keller avoids punishment and prospers.
The narrative intensifies as Keller's son, Chris, engages in a love affair with Ann Deever, Steve's daughter. George Deever returns from war only to find his father incarcerated and his father's partner free. The unfolding events and the burden of guilt bear down on the characters, culminating in a gripping and electrifying climax.
Winner of the Drama Critics' Award for Best New Play in 1947, All My Sons not only established Arthur Miller as a pivotal figure in American theater but also introduced recurring themes seen in his later works: the intricate bonds between fathers and sons, and the perpetual conflict between business interests and personal morality.
A pilot stranded in the desert awakes one morning to see, standing before him, the most extraordinary little fellow. "Please," asks the stranger, "draw me a sheep." And the pilot realizes that when life's events are too difficult to understand, there is no choice but to succumb to their mysteries. He pulls out pencil and paper... And thus begins this wise and enchanting fable that, in teaching the secret of what is really important in life, has changed forever the world for its readers.
Few stories are as widely read and as universally cherished by children and adults alike as The Little Prince. It will capture the hearts of readers of all ages.
