Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of a Star To all those who were kindly patient readers of that first book, "Life on the Stage," greeting - sincere and grateful greeting. Since then I have at least learned enough of the great profession of letters to be afraid. That first book was calmly offered out of the boundless courage of perfect ignorance - this one is held out to you in a hand unsteadied by a tumultuous and most anxious heart. Feeling that interest in my personal story must have ended with girlhood´s successful struggle for air and light and an equal chance with others, it seemed best, after noting my marriage, about which some of the gentlest critics thought I showed "a curious reserve," to devote most of my space to memories of people, more likely to prove interesting to the world at large. That these memories are such mere "shreds and patches" is the fault of a star´s manner of life. Never does she pass more than two weeks in a city - oftener but one; thus a meeting, a greeting, and a parting about describes her existence.
