A hopeful writer and a practical woman navigate dreams, romance, and the price of ambition in a warmly inviting comedy of four acts.
Set in a cramped, creative attic, this comic drama follows Tony Quintard, a young writer, as he wrestles with money, love, and the pull of a life in the arts. Through sharp exchanges, heartfelt moments, and generous interruptions from friends and neighbors, the characters explore what it means to balance aspiration with the needs and loyalties of those around them.
With humor, warmth, and a hint of old‑fashioned magic, the story looks at how a single spark can change a life—and how support from unexpected quarters can turn a simple moment into a turning point. The premise centers on the budding romance between two complex people who must decide what they truly want, and what they are willing to sacrifice to get it.
Ideal for readers who enjoy character‑driven stage comedies with heart, humor, and a touch of theatrical romance.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the first of a five-act play by the author that was first staged in 1919. The play centers around Marjorie Caner, the daughter of a wealthy industrialist who returns home after her mother's death to find her father distant and her life lonely and unfulfilling. The story highlights the social and economic inequalities of the early 20th century and explores themes of wealth, class, and the search for meaning in life. Through the exploration of the relationships between Marjorie and her father, and of Marjorie with other characters such as Walter Nicolls, Albert Sewall, and Tony Quintard, the author presents a nuanced and thought-provoking examination of the human condition.
