Omschrijving

The Author's Farce is a satirical play written by Henry Fielding, first performed in 1730. The play is a comedic take on the life of an author, and follows the story of a struggling writer named Harry Luckless who is desperate for success. Luckless is constantly thwarted by his unscrupulous publisher, who manipulates him for his own gain. Along the way, Luckless encounters a cast of eccentric characters, including a drunken poet, a scheming actress, and a corrupt bookseller. The play is filled with witty dialogue and clever wordplay, and is a scathing commentary on the publishing industry of the time. Despite its initial critical reception, The Author's Farce has since become a classic of English literature and is still performed today.Money. Yes, you told me of a play, and stuff: but you never told me you would order a gentleman to pay me. A sweet, pretty, good-humoured gentleman he is, heaven bless him! Well, you have comical ways with you: but you have honesty at the bottom, and I'm sure the gentleman himself will own I gave you that character.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
