Description
Bigby is concerned with the role the Holocaust and the guilt resulting from it, play in the dramatic works of Arthu Miller. For Miller the Holocaust compels so much attention because of everybody's complicity in it. The Holocaust, the guilt stemming from it, the anti-Semtism that facilitated it - these are the themes in many of Miller's post-WWII works
