The Straw is a short story written by Eugene O'Neill, an American playwright and Nobel laureate in literature. The story follows the protagonist, a man named David, who is committed to a mental institution after a mental breakdown. David is tormented by his past mistakes and his guilt over a past relationship, and he struggles to come to terms with his current situation. As he begins to interact with the other patients in the institution, he starts to see the world in a new light and gains a deeper understanding of himself and his place in the world. Through David's journey, O'Neill explores themes of guilt, redemption, and the human condition. The story is a poignant and thought-provoking examination of mental illness and the complexities of the human psyche.THIS 96 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Plays of Eugene O'Neill Including Anna Christie, Beyond the Horizon, Emperor Jones, The Hairy Ape and Days Without End, by Eugene O'Neill.
