Founded in 1998, HNOC’s “Tennessee Williams Annual Review” remains the only journal devoted to the works, worldwide influence, and cultural context of one of the most pivotal playwrights of the 20th century. The 2026 issue is now available at the Shop at the Collection!

The cover of the latest issue features Paul Mescal and Patsy Ferran in “A Streetcar Named Desire” at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Inside the issue, two Tennessee Williams works appear in print for the first time. An archival journey of discovery introduces readers to “The Lingering Hour,” one of Williams’s last and least-known plays. Essays explore piracy, Soviet criticism, Williams’s financial struggles as a young writer, recent stage productions, and new books.
