- A Modern Play In Four Acts (1900)

Bag om The Likeness Of The Night

The Likeness of the Night is a four-act modern play written by Mrs. W.K. Clifford and originally published in 1900. The play explores themes of love, betrayal, and societal expectations in the lives of three women: Lila, a young woman who is forced into a loveless marriage; Mabel, her friend who is trapped in an unhappy marriage; and Lady Marayne, a wealthy and powerful woman who is determined to control the lives of those around her. The play is set in London and features a cast of complex characters, including the three women, their husbands, and various other members of high society. As the plot unfolds, the characters are forced to confront their own desires and the expectations of those around them, leading to a dramatic and unexpected conclusion. The Likeness of the Night is a compelling portrait of the struggles and pressures faced by women in turn-of-the-century England, and a timeless exploration of the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
