[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from The Boor: A Comedy in One Act Play without intermission by Philip Barry. Produced originally by the Theatre Guild at the Martin Beck Theatre, New York. 5 males, 4 females. I exterior scene. Modern costumes. One of the most striking and original plays ever written by an American, and on the occasion of its production in New York it aroused heated controversy. It is the most ambitious and brilliant play Mr. Barry has ever attempted, and is concerned with the baffling problems which every adult human being is at some time forced to face. The characters seem hardly to exist at all in relation to other people, which is surely the reason why Mr. Barry discovered (somewhat as Chekov discovered) that to invent a plot for them would be to deprive them of the kind of reality he was after. These people are essentially introspective, centripetal, literally self-seeking. And what are they after? Just an answer to the question that every thinking human being must ask himself - and vainly: What is life? What is death? Where are we going, and why? What is the meaning of past, present and future? Published only in bound form. "A glittering play of unreality and magic to quicken the pulses and stir the minds..." Richard Lockridge, N. Y. Sun. (Royalty on application.) Price 2.00 per copy (in cloth). The Farmer's Wife Comedy in 3 acts. By Eden Phillpotts. Produced originally by Charles Coburn in New York City. 9 males, 13 females. 2 interiors. Modern costumes. This delightful comedy of English people was one of the long run successes in London before coming to New York. The story is concerned with Samuel Sweetland, a Devonshire farmer and a widower, who decides to marry again. Aided and abetted by his housekeeper, Araminta, he makes out a list of the various eligible women in the county and proposes to them in turn. But they all refuse him, and in the end he finds at home, in Araminta, the one woman. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
