The Hairy Ape  (Paperback, Eugene O' Neill)

About the book: "The Hairy Ape," a 1922 expressionist play by Eugene O'Neill, follows Yank, a powerful ship laborer, searching for identity in a class-stratified world. When a wealthy woman calls him a "filthy beast," Yank rebels, leading to his deterioration. Unfit for both Fifth Avenue and the labor organizers, he spirals into despair. Yank's existential crisis reflects societal oppression and industrial dehumanization. O'Neill explores masculinity through Yank's primal traits and confronts racial degeneration themes.
