Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of an Author, Vol. 2 of 2 Once, in Dublin, I was invited to a party given on a rather eccentric principle. It was to commence with a lunch at two; there was a concert, conversation, and tea to follow, until dinner was reached. This was, as may be imagined, a serious original business, for there were a large number of persons to be provided for. After the dinner there was a dance. The hostess was Mrs. Parnell, mother of the uncrowned King - an agreeable American lady with handsome daughters. It was here that I met Mr. Dion Boucicault, who was at the height of his reputation as the author of the charming ´Colleen Bawn.´ He was then an interesting, and even brilliant, man, and greatly followed by the public gaze, for he was assumed to be safe and clever, shrewd and far-seeing.
