Description
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewA comparison of the two plays, guided by Davis's commentary, gives an acute insight into the creative process from the viewpoint of two very different authors as they strive to solve common problems. * English Literature In Transition *
A very interesting and necessary piece of work. -- Anthony Farrow, St. Bonaventure University * English Literature In Transition *
Students of the 'art' of dramatic collaboration and George Moore specialists everywhere will appreciate Eugene Davis's detective work in locating two versions of a play on the subject of George Moore's Esther Waters and even more the rightness ofhis introductory comments, comparison of the two versions, and bibliographical notes. As Moore would say, this is so good, I wish I had done it myself. Congratulations to the author and publisher. -- Jack W. Weaver, Winthrop College * English Literature In Transition *
