Book Overview

Artists' Families, Menages D'Artistes: A Comedy In Three Acts is a play written by Eugene Brieux and originally published in 1918. The play revolves around the lives of three artists and their families who live in the same building in Paris. The main characters are a painter, a sculptor, and a writer, each of whom is struggling to balance their artistic pursuits with their personal lives. The play explores themes of love, jealousy, and the challenges of maintaining relationships while pursuing a creative career. The characters' relationships are tested when a wealthy woman moves into the building and becomes romantically involved with all three men. The play is a satirical commentary on the bohemian lifestyle and the struggles of artists to balance their passions with practical concerns. It is a humorous and insightful look at the lives of artists and their families in early 20th-century Paris.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
