Synopsis

""The Coming of Gabrielle"" is a novel written by George Moore, first published in 1913. The story revolves around Gabrielle, a young woman who is determined to break free from the confines of her conventional upbringing and explore her own desires and passions. Gabrielle's journey takes her from the rural countryside of Ireland to the bustling streets of Paris, where she becomes involved in a bohemian circle of artists and intellectuals. Along the way, she experiences love, heartbreak, and self-discovery as she navigates the complexities of her own identity and the changing world around her. Through Gabrielle's story, Moore explores themes of gender, sexuality, and social norms, offering a provocative and thought-provoking commentary on the early 20th century society. This novel is a timeless classic that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Now one day whilst self-love was spinning specious theories that would lay bare my failure to write plays that pleased me, the friend walking at my side said, interrupting my subtleties: All you say may be true, but you havent given the seriousness to the writing of plays that you have to your narratives. His words pierced my conscience, and I said: The Strike at A rlmgford was written for no more inspiring reason than that Mr. G. R. Sims told a journalist he would contribute 100 to the Independent Theatre if I wrote a play in three acts. The Bending of the Bough was needed to secure an annual performance at the I rish Literary Theatre, the play we had counted on not being considered worthy of production. The writing of Diarmuid and Grama was undertaken for the pleasure of collaborating with Mr. W. B.
