Back to School with Thornton Wilder

Rebecca. “Ma. I hate that dress.” 
Mrs. Gibbs. “Oh, Hush-up-with you”
Rebecca: “Every day I go to school dressed like a sick turkey.”
(Our Town, 1938)

Whether you’re a teacher, a student, or a student of life, Wilder’s plays and novels offer something for everyone.
