Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Tenth Man: A Tragic Comedy in Three Acts She treats her husband with good-humoured scorn, aware of his foibles, but amused rather than annoyed by them. When the curtain rises Francis Etchingham is a prey to the liveliest vexation. He is walking nerrously across the room, while his wife, with a thin smile, stands quietly watching him. With a gesture of irritation he flings himself into a chair Etchingham. Why the dickens didn´t you tell me last night, Angela? Lady Francis. [Smiling.] I had no wish to disturb my night´s rest. Etchingham. Upon my soul, I don´t know what you mean. It´s incomprehensible to me that you should have slept like a top. I couldn´t have closed my eyes the whole night. Lady Francis. I known. And you would have taken excellent care that I shouldn´t close mine either. Etchingham. I should have thought I had enough to do without being pestered with a foolish woman´s matrimonial difficulties. Lady Francis. [With a laugh.] You really have a very detached way of looking at things, Frank. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
