Description
The Strand Magazine — The Tennessee Williams Lost Play Issue
A lost play by Tennessee Williams—published for the first time.
This landmark issue of The Strand Magazine features The Strangers, a complete, previously unpublished play written by Tennessee Williams in 1938—decades before A Streetcar Named Desire and The Glass Menagerie made him a legend.
Long hidden in the archives, The Strangers is a haunting supernatural drama set in a storm-lashed house on the New England coast, filled with flickering candlelight, unseen presences, and the psychological tension that would later define Williams’s greatest works. The play appears here in its entirety, not as an excerpt or summary.
But this issue delivers far more than one historic discovery.
Also in this issue:
-
Michael Connelly, in an exclusive interview on crime fiction, legacy, and storytelling
-
Patricia Cornwell, discussing Scarpetta and the evolution of the genre
-
New fiction by Steve Hamilton, Margie Deck, Mike Robinson, and more
-
Reviews and features curated for serious mystery and suspense readers
