Five Plays

Zusatztext

A fine selection of Dunsany's plays, including: 'The Gods of the Mountain, The Golden Doom, King Argimenes and The Unknown Warrior, The Glittering Gate, ' and 'The Lost Silk Hat.' These plays are certainly old-fashioned, but are interesting trinkets nonetheless for the modern reader of Shakespeare, Tolkien, Lovecraft, etc. Their self-conscious old-worldliness more or less rules them out of a seriously approached modern-day staging, though a brave and skilled theater company might put 'The Glittering Gate' or 'The Lost Silk Hat' as a curtain show ahead of a Shakespeare or a Strindberg.
