Synopsis
Liliom is a play written by Hungarian playwright Ferenc Molnar. The story follows the life of Liliom, a charismatic and charming carnival barker who falls in love with a young woman named Julie. However, Liliom's reckless behavior and criminal activities eventually catch up with him, leading to tragic consequences.Throughout the play, Molnar explores themes of love, redemption, and the consequences of one's actions. Liliom is a complex character, both likable and flawed, and the audience is left to grapple with their own feelings towards him as the story unfolds.First performed in Budapest in 1909, Liliom has since been adapted into numerous films and stage productions, including the famous musical Carousel. Molnar's writing is known for its wit and humor, but also its emotional depth and exploration of the human condition.Overall, Liliom is a classic play that continues to captivate audiences with its timeless themes and memorable characters.THIS 68 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Theatre Guild Anthology V1, by Ferenc Molnar.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
