Inhaltsangabe

A spark of theatre, a mirror held up to a crowded room. The Devil draws its own line between pride and conscience, between appearance and truth, in a story that continues to haunt stages and libraries alike. This restored edition brings Ferenc Molnár's sharp, incisive stage play to modern readers. A compact, meticulously observed drama of early twentieth-century life, it examines moral dilemma and social hypocrisy with human warmth and unflinching wit. The tension between private desire and public duty plays out in a world of old world theatre, where reputation trembles and loyalties fracture. For classic drama lovers, this is a precise, electrifying study of character under pressure; for readers and actors, it is a masterclass in rhythm, subtext, and the economy of stage craft. The text's vitality translates across English translation readers and students of the dramatic form alike, offering rich material for study for actors and audiences who crave authentic European stage classics. Historically, Molnár's work stands as a bridge between Hungarian setting and universal themes, a touchstone of European theatre that resonates beyond its time. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
