And Then You Wish

John van Druten

0/5 ( ratings)

There's a possible theatre enthusiast reading public for this novel by the playwright who gave us Young Woodley, but it is primarily a woman's story about a woman, the widowed Mrs. Bowen who finds a chance to indulge her secret passion for the theatre when she meets a struggling, unrecognized playwright. She plays every card and eventually gets production for him, only to find that the reality falls short of her imaginings. Unsentimental, revealing yet sympathetic presentation. Appeal to woman audience and better type rental libraries.

Language: English

Pages: 273

Format: Unbound

Release: January 01, 1937
