In Arthur Miller’s 1991 play, The Ride Down Mt. Morgan, Lyman Felt is hospitalised after a serious car crash and two women claiming to be his wife meet by his side. Caught in a web of lies between two families looking for an explanation, Lyman’s reasons for his deceitfulness shed new light on old memories and replace deception with the unavoidable, aching truth.

Betrayal and bigamy, crisis and reconciliation are just some of the themes probed by the playwright who also wrote Death of a Salesman, All My Sons, The Crucible and The View From the Bridge.

This Student Edition features a commentary by Toby Zinman, Professor of English, University of the Arts, Philadelphia.

Arthur Miller was born on 17 October 1915 in Harlem, New York City. He was arguably the greatest American playwright of the 20th century, his work including plays such as All My Sons (1947), Death of a Salesman (which won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1949), The Crucible (1953), and A View from the Bridge (1955). In addition to the plays, his many other books included fiction, essays and the autobiography Time Bends. He died in 2005 at his home in Roxbury, Connecticut. Toby Zinman is Professor of English at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Zinman was a Fulbright professor at Tel Aviv University, a visiting professor in China, and has won five grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities. She publishes widely as an academic and arts journalist and lectures internationally on American drama. Zinman is also the chief theatre critic for the Philadelphia Inquirer and was recently named by American Theatre magazine, “one of the twelve most influential critics in America”.
