از این مجموعه نمایش نامه، "خاطره ی دو دوشنبه" نیز به فارسی ترجمه شده، چون به یاد دارم که به فارسی خوانده ام، ولی به یاد ندارم منتشر هم شده باشد. همین طور نمایش نامه ی دیگر میللر "ارکستر زنان آشوئیتس"، که آن را در هیات کتاب فارسی، در یاد ندارم. A Memory of Two Mondays is based on Miller's own experiences, The play focuses on a group of desperate workers earning their livings in a Brooklyn automobile parts warehouse during the Great Depression in the 1930s, a time of 25 percent unemployment in the United States. It explores the dreams of a young man yearning for a college education in the midst of people stumbling through the workday in a haze of hopelessness and despondency. The Women's Orchestra of Auschwitz, or the Girls' Orchestra of Auschwitz, was a female orchestra at Auschwitz concentration camp, created in June 1943 by a Polish music teacher, by order of the SS. The members were young female jews prisoners, whose membership in the orchestra protected them from being gassed in the gas chamber. The conductor was eventually Alma Rose, the daughter of Gustav Mahler's sister Justine and her husband Arnold Rose. The orchestra played at the gate, during the final stages of the Holocaust, when the large numbers of Jews were sent directly to the gas chambers. The orchestra played in order to put the minds of the victims at ease. Realizing that the musicians get better treatment than other prisoners, playing for the Nazis, however, robs the women of much of their dignity and most of them often questioned whether remaining alive was worth the abuse they constantly suffer.
