Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Passages From the Journal of Thomas Russell Sullivan: 1891-1903 January 1, 1891. To the "Museum" to-night where Clyde Fitch´s little comedy of "Betty´s Finish" is now given. He has remarkable talent; his dialogue goes of itself; his young girl is simple and natural - usually. But there is a very slight plot encumbered with useless characters. The incidents are not always to the point, and the play does not make the effect it should. A succès d´estime - no more. It is not equal to the "Frédéric Lemaître" played here for the first time a month ago. But he is young, and will do better things. Reading the "Vie Litteraire" of Anatole France to-night for the first time, I came upon a passage à propos of Rousseau which is almost word for word what I wrote last month for Scribner´s "Point of View" concerning "Passports to Posterity," with Rousseau for my text. So like is mine to his, that one would swear I had read him and wrote from recollection. And yet I have not! It must have been "in the air," as Jack Wheelwright said the other day of a similar case. This reminds me of -´s remark in old times. "If you get an idea, publish it at once, or some other literary ´feller´ will be out with it before you!"
