Plays : Fifth Series

Plays: Fifth Series by John Galsworthy is the fifth series of plays by Galsworthy following the lives of the Builder family. Excerpt: "The study of JOHN BUILDER in the provincial town of Breconridge. A paneled room wherein nothing is ever studied, except perhaps BUILDER'S face in the mirror over the fireplace. It is, however, comfortable, and has large leather chairs and a writing table in the center, on which is a typewriter, and many papers. At the back is a large window with French outside shutters, overlooking the street, for the house is an old one, built in an age when the homes of doctors, lawyers, and so forth were part of a provincial town, and not yet suburban."
