لا أدري من أين أتيت بكل هذه الدموع التي بللت وجهي من أجلك يا "آنا" أشفقت عليك كثيرا. .

I listened to this

as an audiobook while following along in my paperback copy that had the TINIEST print WOW, I felt this was very well done, but it was a very sad play, Very sad indeed. Another mediocre play which follows the theme of society and 'fallen women', Anna Christie moves in with her father on a coal barge and falls in love with a sailor, Matt, who unfortunately doesn't get along with her father.
The two men struggle for who has control over Anna until she is disgusted with the whole buisness and reveals she was a prostitute before living with her father.
The revalation has a shocking effect on the two men in her life, but the ending is happy, But frankly it would have been more entertaining if the three main characters drowned, Just another one of O'Neil's mediocre early works, The story is pretty good, although I could have done without the overthetop happy ending, It gets bogged down by the same problem that haunts much of O'Neill's work, His insistence on forcing the accents on the page, Yes, I understand he is writing a script, not so much something to be read, His insistence on writing the accents in so forcibly makes the works almost impossible to read and shows that he lacks confidence in his actors.
One could simply say in the stage directions that Chris speaks with a Swedish accent and Mat with an Irish one and let the actors do their work.
Instead, he insists on creating illegible pages, This American play, written in, was one of two little Eugene O'Neill volumes that I decided to read back to back,

The first scene opens with Chris Christopherson, more commonly known as "Old Chris," relaxing at a pub, and telling fellow drinkers and friends about his daughter, Anna Christie, who is coming to visit him.
Chris hasn't seen his daughter since she was two years old, which wasyears ago, Chris' exwife was driven mad by her husband's occupation as a sailor, and came to hate the sea and any men having anything to do with it.
And so, long ago, she took their child and moved to a safely landlocked state, Now, Anna is coming to visit her father for the first time, and he isn't at all sure what to expect or how to act.

Anna arrives in town just a few pages later, strolling into the same local pub that her father has just exited, Her father, knowing that Anna's mother will have brought her up to loathe the sea, has lied to her and told her that he is a janitor, but it doesn't take very long for Anna to discover that in reality, her father is captain of a coal barge.
The scene ends with her being horrified, and vowing that she will never stay with her father if it means living on the water.

When the next scene opens, apparently some time has passed, and Anna seems to be taking to sea life very well, She is enamored by the sea, and loves to simply stand on the deck for hours taking in the water, the fog, and the salty air.
Chris, rather than being pleased, does all he can to rid his daughter of this enchantment, doing his best to portray the ocean and sailors in the worst light possible.

Shortly after, a marooned sailor is rescued from the water and brought aboard the ship, The man, whose name is Burke, takes an immediate fancy to Anna, but it isn't until she sends him sprawling over the deck with a good punch for flirting that he falls in love.

Anna, though she has similar feelings, is plagued by her knowledge that nothing can ever work out between she and Burke, due to her past as a prostitute.


This play had an interesting enough storyline to keep me reading, and I finished it quickly in one sitting, The characters are all simple, realistic people that you can easily imagine as people whether on a stage or in real life, And because the play is relatively short, O'Neill doesn't waste any time moving from one scene to another,

I found the underlying character of the sea interesting: Chris, a man of the sea himself, apparently agrees with his exwife's sentiments about its evil.
Though he has held some respectable ranks as captain and bosun on other vessels before, he is ashamed rather than proud of these accomplishments, and is agonized when he hears his daughter boasting about them.
Rather than be happy that Anna discovers a love for the sea, he is horrified, He tells her dark tales of people being drowned, terrible storms, and portrays all sailors as duplicitous, unscrupulous scoundrels, Most of all, he warns her against marrying a sailor, who he says will only leave her for his first love the sea.

The sea is portrayed as an addictive mistress that is both loved and hated,
Of course, in the end, Anna does end up with a sailor, He promises that he will never leave her for very long, that he will take her with him on voyages when he can, and that he will never even look at any of the other women in seaside ports.
But we have to wonder if this is true, or if Chris is right,

Of the two plays by O'Neill that I read the other being "The Emperor Jones" I liked this one best, کوتاه و ساده و جمع و جور
با پایانی که نفهمیدم چی به چی شد Anna Christie grew up away from her family with distant cousins on a farm in Minnesota, After an illness, she returns to the sea to see the father she hasn't seen since her childhood, She wants to let him know the idyllic childhood in Minnesota that he envisioned for her wasn't the reality, In truth, she grew up as little more than a slave for these cousins and was ultimately abused leading her down a less than desirable life path.
With all of this baggage, how much will Anna reveal to her father and the man who she has fallen for

This one ties up a little too nicely at the end for me.
I almost thought it was over at the end of Act II and maybe would have been a little more thought provoking if that was the truth.
This Pulitzer Prizewinning drama fromwas surprisingly modern in its language, I read this whilst listening to the Librivox recording, which I found helpful for the Swedish amp Irish accents sometimes I had no trouble understanding the spoken word when the written dialect was difficult.


In terms of plot, it seemed strangely similar to Ibsen to me except for being set in America, Most people know Anna Christie as the Garbo movie where the actress demanded "Give me a whiskey, ginger ale on the side and don't be stingy, baby.
"

The acerbic line comes straight from O'Neill's play, but the real salt comes from Anna's father, a cartoonish sailor with lines written in Swedish Chefstyle dialect he says "pooty" for "pretty.
"

Anna's love interest is a nasty lout, and he's plenty despicable,

A pat ending on top of theD characters keeps this from being great O'Neill, but like the example above there are some fun oneliners.


Worth reading out loud, if you can keep a straight face, The best part of this Eugene ONeill play is the title character, Anna Christie, Strong, compelling, and sympathetic, she demands our attention while surrounded with cliche characters and a pot boiler plot, Both other principal characters, her Swedish immigrant father and Irish rogue love interest are as flat and one dimensional as the stage accents their dialogue is written in.
The plot is standard fallen woman/redemption, and the happy ending is too pat and unrealistic for the set up, Yet despite all these flaws the play is worth the reading for Anna Christie herself, After an illness Anna Christie seeks refuge with her father whom she has not seen inyears, Both them have deceived the other with the lives they led while apart, Old Chris is a coal barge captain and Anna has led a hard life getting by as she could, I was struck by the disrespect Anna showed her father who wanted only the best and to believe the best about his daughter.


Along comes Mat whom they rescue from the waters on one of their voyages, Mat almost immediately professes his love for Anna much to the dissatisfaction of her father, Old Chris believes that the lives that sailors lead and the lives of those wives and families left behind is a life to be avoided.
The truth is revealed and Anna is faced with a father and lover who want to control her, "آنا کریستی" نمایش نامه ای در چهار پرده برنده ی جایزه ی پولیتزرداستان یک فاحشه ی سابق است که پس از سال ها رنج تنهایی عاشق شده زندگی اش دگرگون می شود اما با مشکلات تازه ای دست به گریبان است. کریس پیر کاپتین یک کشتی حمل زغال سنگ دختر جوانش را که از پنج سالگی ندیده ملاقات می کند و از او می خواهد تا همراه او در کشتی بماند. خدمه ی کشتی "مت بروک" و چهار خدمتکار کشتی شکسته ای را نجات می دهند. مت که عاشق آنا می شود قصد دارد با او ازدواج کند اما کریس مایل نیست دخترش همسر یک ملوان شبیه خودش بشود. آنا که از دست کریس و مت سخت دلخور است که بجای او تصمیم می گیرند حقیقت زندگی اش را فاش می کند هنگامی که با مادرش زندگی می کرده به او تجاوز شده مدتی پرستار بوده و سپس به فاحشگی پرداخته. مت و کریس خشمگین آنا را تنها می گذارند اما با شرمندگی باز می گردند. آنا پدرش را برای این که او را در کودکی تنها گذاشته می بخشد و کریس با ازدواج آنها موافقت می کند. مت و کریس در یک کشتی که عازم آفریقای جنوبی ست استخدام می شوند و به آنا قول می دهند که پس از این سفر به خانه بازگردند.

This award winning play by Eugene O'Neill was brought to the stage in the's in both New York and London, It has been revived several times over the years and was also made into a movie, It's the story of a young girl returning home to her seafaring father, trying to rebuild her life, trying to find a safe harbor from a world of prostitution, and maybe even find real love somehow.


It won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in, It also won aTony Award in the US and an Oliver Award in England for best revival of a play, I'd never seen nor read thisPulitzer Prize winning play, which was also awarded a Tony Award for best revival in, but I listened to a good audio version this morning.
I suspecthaving seen a few of O'Neill's plays years ago, that this will not be considered one of his best, but it was engaging.


Old Chris, a sailor, meets his daughter Anna whom he hasn't seen foryears, Thy both have lied about their past, Mat Burke, another sailor, gets rescued and Anna and Mat fall in love, There's a struggle for control of Anna between the two men, who leave together on a boat bound for Cape Horn, both committed to return to her.


The Big Reveal sorry, spoiler alert that would have be shocking I imagine in aplay, is that when Anna left home she left because she had been raped by a relative, was thus "unable to marry" and lived life as a prostitute.
All of the principal characters have lied about their pasts, though, so the basic move of the play is forgiveness of each other.


I have been reading/listening to a lot of great drama this doesn't quite measure up to some of the others I have been reading, but Anna is an interesting, strong, complex character, maybe especially given the time it was written.
