Book Description
"More Stately Mansions" is a play by Eugene O'Neill. Originally intended to be part of a nine-play cycle entitled A Tale of Possessors Self-Dispossessed, Mansions was an incomplete rough draft written between 1936 and 1939 that O'Neill did not want posthumously finished or produced. A sequel to "A Touch of the Poet", it picks up four years later in 1832 Massachusetts, with Simon Harford, now married to Sara Melody, finding himself the pawn in a battle between his wife and his mother to control him through love. Played out against the background of an industrial revolution, the struggle ultimately leads to tragedy and despair.Einstein Books' edition of "More Stately Mansions" contains supplementary texts:* An excerpt from "A Touch Of The Poet", the prequel to "More Stately Mansions".* The poem "The Chambered Nautilus" by Oliver Wendell Holmes, from which the title of the play is derived.* A few selected quotes of Eugene O'Neill.

Book Description
Arguing that the 1964 edition of Eugene O'Neill's unfinished play More Stately Mansions, prepared after the playwright's death, was missing a substantial amount of material that O'Neill intended for inclusion, Martha Bower here presents an entirely new edition of the play with this material--dialogue, character description, an entire scene, the epilogue, and large parts of other scenes--restored. Published to coincide with the centennial of O'Neill's birth, it will stand as an important contribution to O'Neill scholarship.
