Description
Suppressed Desires is a comedic play written in two episodes by Susan Glaspell. The play follows the story of a married couple, Henrietta and Stephen Brewster, who are struggling to connect with each other on a deeper level. Henrietta is a modern, independent woman who is interested in the study of psychology and the theories of Sigmund Freud. She becomes obsessed with the idea that her husband has a repressed desire to become a poet, and she enlists the help of her friend, Mabel, to explore his subconscious through hypnosis. The play is set in the early 20th century and is a commentary on the changing roles of women in society. It explores themes of gender roles, sexuality, and the power dynamics within relationships. The characters are complex and well-developed, with each one having their own desires and motivations. The play is both funny and thought-provoking, and it offers a unique perspective on the struggles of marriage and the human psyche. Overall, Suppressed Desires is a witty and entertaining play that offers a glimpse into the social and psychological issues of its time. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of theater or the changing roles of women in society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
