New York: Signet / New American Library, 1964. Reprint. Mass Market Paperback. Very Good. 0x0x0. Edges lightly rubbed. 1964 Mass Market Paperback. 142 pp. Movie tie-in edition. 8 film stills. "A Streetcar Named Desire is one of the most remarkable plays of our time. It created an immortal woman in the character of Blanche DuBois, the haggard and fragile southern beauty whose pathetic last grasp at happiness is cruelly destroyed. It shot Marlon Brando to fame in the role of Stanley Kowalski, a sweat-shirted barbarian, the crudely sensual brother-in-law who precipitated Blanche's tragedy.
