Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. A poignant and thought-provoking story unfolds in a small Illinois town, where a woman named Hilda Crane grapples with a pivotal decision that will shape her future. Returning home after years in the bustling city, she finds herself at a crossroads, torn between the allure of a comfort…able life with a kind and successful suitor and the lingering echoes of past loves and aspirations. Set against the backdrop of post-World War II America, this book delves into the complexities of love, marriage, and societal expectations placed upon women. The author skillfully explores the timeless themes of self-discovery, the search for meaning, and the courage to defy convention in pursuit of personal fulfillment. Through Hilda's introspective journey and interactions with her mother, former flames, and potential husband, the narrative delves into the universal human desire for connection and belonging. The book offers profound insights into the sacrifices and compromises individuals make in their quest for happiness, leaving readers to ponder the true nature of love and the choices that define our lives. Ultimately, it challenges us to examine our own values and beliefs as we navigate the intricate paths of love, ambition, and the pursuit of a meaningful existence. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Add to basketCloth. Condition: Very Good Indeed. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First edition. A lovely collection of two Broadway plays by Samson Raphaelson, together in their original dust wrappers. Collection comprised of: (1939) Skylark; (1951) Hilda Crane. Both copies are first editions, bound in the publisher's original cloth bindin…gs, together with the original, clipped dust wrappers. Each text contains a frontispiece and two further photographic plates. An exciting collection of two Broadway plays by American playwright and screenwriter Samson Raphaelson. Skylark originally appeared as a comic story in theSaturday Evening Post entitled Streamlined Heart, soon after which Raphaelson renamed and adapted it into the present play, which made its premiere in October of the same year. Hilda Crane was also adapted from a series of short stories, this time as contributions to Good Housekeeping magazine, first appearing on stage in November 1950. Both works were subsequently adapted for film. From the theatrical collection of Clive Hirschhorn, theatre critic for the Sunday Express from 1966 to 1993. Known for his witty and thorough reviews, features and interviews, Hirschhorn also authored several works on the film industry, including his critically acclaimed biographies of Hollywood stars, Gene Kelly and James Mason. A renowned book collector, the majority of works from Hirschhorn"s incredible library of theatre-related material have a characteristic pencil inscription with his date of acquisition to the upper corner of the paste down. In the publisher's original cloth bindings. With the original, clipped dust wrappers. Bookplate of the University of Southern California book store to the rear paste down. Externally, lovely condition with only minor bumping and rubbing and the odd mark, more so to Skylark. Dust wrapper to Skylark features minimal edge wear, including a few small tears and very minor chips, with reasonable discolouration and marking, more so to the rear, including a faint tide mark to the top edge of the front cover. Hilda Crane is an exceptionally nice dust wrapper with next to no shelf wear and some minor discolouration to the rear. Internally, firmly bound. A very bright and clean collection with the exception of heavier age toning to the first and last few pages of Skylark. Very Good Indeed. Not Stated (illustrator). book.
