Tennessee Williams defines eccentricity as the small oddities, the unusual ways of doing of singing teacher Alma Winemiller. Daughter of a pastor and a mother who is now insane – after causing scandal -, held up to her fellow citizens’ public contempt, she is in love with the best scion of Glorious Hill: although she is not at his height, she places her bets and loses. Her struggle is to survive the past; full of smiles, of broken glass, of hidden whispers, of snow, and of the vital tenacity of Williams’ heroines, who know how to fail with poignant and suffocating grace
