В настоящей статье оспаривается традицио-нальный подход, согласно которому драмы Эдварда Олби можно характеризовать как «драмы абсурда». Те произведения писателя, которые принято считать наиболее абсурдными - например, «Американская мечта» - построены на фрагментации, на умолчании ключей, облегчающих интерпретации, и в этом отношении они ближе к языку постмодернистского театра и драмы. В статье путьем анализа «Американской мечты» изучаются элементы, ссылающие к постмодерну.

This paper is about to argue against a commonly accepted discourse according to which the plays of Edward Albee can be labelled as "absurdist". The works of the American playwright, such as the American Dream, are characterized by a certain fragmentation; that is, the lack of any narrative that could narrow the range of the interpretations - therefore these plays distance themselves from the modernist Absurd, and come closer to the prostmodernist dramatical language. The aim of this paper is to highlight the postmodern characteristics in the American Dream.
