Our Town: A Play in Three Acts by Thornton Wilder (New York : Perennial Library, 1985, c1957).
Thornton Wilder wrote Our Town during a period of his life when he lived in the MacDowell Colony. The play is inextricably linked to Peterborough, NH which provided the model for Grover's Corners, the town of the title.
"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it?"
