Abstract

          Hellman raises multiple issues in her plays, yet 'money' emerges as a common motif and unifying symbol in all her plays. One may say without any exaggeration that Money is a recurring protagonist in her plays because it can affect people's loyalties and values. Money represents a wide variety of values to different characters individually. Some love it, some hate it, and some pretend indifference to it; however, none can deny its significant role in their lives. It fetches both pleasure and pain to those who possess it or long for it. In Toys in Attic, after the loss of his money, Julian explains: Old saying, money is a real pure lady and when the world began she swore herself an oath never to belong to a man who didn't love her. I never loved her and she guessed it. Couldn't fool her, she got good sense. (751)
