Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Susan Lenox, Vol. 2: Her Fall and Rise; With a Portrait of the Author Susan´s impulse was toward the stage. It had become a definite ambition with her, the stronger because Spenser´s jealousy and suspicion had forced her to keep it a secret, to pretend to herself that she had no thought but going on indefinitely as his obedient and devoted mistress. The hardiest and best growths are the growths inward - where they have sun and air from without. She had been at the theater several times every week, and had studied the performances at a point of view very different from that of the audience. It was there to be amused; she was there to learn. Spenser and such of his friends as he would let meet her talked plays and acting most of the time. He had forbidden her to have women friends. "Men don´t demoralize women; women demoralize each other," was one of his axioms. But such women as she had a bowing acquaintance with were all on the stage - in comic operas or musical farces. She was much alone; that meant many hours every day which could not but be spent by a mind like hers in reading and in thinking. Only those who have observed the difference aloneness makes in mental development, where there is a good mind, can appreciate how rapidly, how broadly, Susan expanded.
