In A Streetcar Named Desire,
Tennessee Williams is identified in two characters: Blanche Dubois and her husband,
Allan Grey.
In Blanche we see the debauched Williams,
addicted to pills and alcohol, slowly descending into depression and self-destruction,
and trying her best to come back to the surface to no
avail.
In Allan Grey, we see Williams also in that they are
both homosexual and seem to have a problem with leading double lives and accepting their
identities until their href="http://www.nytimes.com/books/00/12/31/specials/williams-drugs.html">deaths.
