James and John, a Play in One Act (Classic Reprint)
It is half past nine of an evening and the scene is the parlour of a little house in a gaunt row of houses in a street in a London suburb. By the fireplace at the back james and john BETTS are playing backgammon the board on a little table between them. They are both grey, JAMES has a beard, john is clean-shaven, JOHN wears glasses. Both wear morningcoats and both have carpet slippers, james smokes, JOHN does not, john has a glass of whisky on the mantelpiece within reach: JAMES is teetotal. They are absorbed in their game and pay no attention to their mother, a stout old lady who is sitting in her chair reading a novel, sleeping, and knitting. Her chair is by another little table on which the solitary lamp of the room is placed so as to cast its light on her book. She is directly in front of the fire so that her back is towards the audience, john is sitting with his back towards her. The room is ugly and Mid-V ictorian, I ts door is to the right. I ts window to the left. In the window is a stand of miserable-looking ferns and an india-rubber plant.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
