About the book

A Delicate Balance

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, A Delicate Balance is one of Edward Albee’s most searching and unsettling plays—an unflinching portrait of comfort, fear, and the quiet terror of modern life.

Set in the living room of a prosperous suburban home, the play centers on Agnes and Tobias, a long‑married couple who pride themselves on civility, routine, and emotional restraint. Their carefully maintained equilibrium is shattered when close friends Harry and Edna arrive unannounced, fleeing an unnamed and overwhelming fear that has driven them from their own house.

As family members and guests gather, old resentments, unspoken grief, and moral evasions rise to the surface. Albee exposes the fragile agreements that sustain friendship, marriage, and family life—and asks how much responsibility we truly owe one another when fear becomes unbearable.

Elegant, merciless, and darkly funny, A Delicate Balance is a landmark of American drama and a master class in psychological tension. This Abrams Broadway Edition presents Albee’s Pulitzer‑winning text in an accessible format for readers, students, and theater professionals alike.
