View from the Bridge

Book • 2011
Arthur Miller's "A View from the Bridge" tells the tragic story of Eddie Carbone, a longshoreman in Red Hook, Brooklyn, during the 1950s.

Eddie harbors repressed feelings for his orphaned niece, Catherine, and becomes increasingly possessive as she develops a relationship with Rodolpho, one of his wife's cousins who arrives from Italy.

The play explores themes of jealousy, forbidden desire, and the destructive consequences of suppressed emotions.

As Eddie's obsession intensifies, he makes a fateful decision that leads to betrayal and ultimately, his own downfall.

The play is a powerful examination of the complexities of family, honor, and the American dream.
