    The best I can find is a New York Times review of True West, which says "Mr. Shepard's plays share only a dark theme of tragedy and sin."

    There is an intersting one here: http://www.enotes.com/true-west/33658

    although it pertains mainly to the idea of "myth" it certainly discusses what you are looking for.
