This paper is an attempt to explore some of the salient postmodernist features in Marsha Norman's Pulitzer-Prize play ‘night Mother (1983). Marsha Norman (1947-), is considered a contemporary American playwright who wrote “seven full-length plays, five one-act plays and one novel The Fortune Teller" (Mehta 11). This study is intended to show the extent to which the play exemplifies some features of the postmodernist theory. Before embarking on the play's critical analysis, it is indispensable to refer in passing to the infinite discussion in order to come up with a satisfactory definition of postmodernism.
