A Touch of Poet and More Stately Mansions

A Touch of the Poet and More Stately Mansions are regarded as two of Eugene ONeills finest plays. Companion pieces, linked by characters and themes, they form part of a projected series of eleven interconnected plays in which the playwright intended to give a psychological and economic account of American life. Now these works, the only surviving plays in ONeills "cycle," are brought together for the first time in a paper-back volume. The version of More Stately Mansions presented here is ONeills unexpurgated text, scrupulously edited by Martha Gilman Bower, which restores the playwrights original opening scene, a crucial epilogue, and other material essential to our understanding of the play.
