Seller's Description:
New. La Joie Fait Peur: Comedie En Un Acte (1865) is a French play written by Emile De Girardin. The title translates to "Joy is Scary: Comedy in One Act". The play explores the theme of happiness and how it can be fleeting and unpredictable. The story follows the character of Madame de Sainte-Colombe, a wealthy widow who is celebrating her birthday with her friends. As the evening progresses and the champagne flows, the guests become increasingly wild and unpredictable. Madame de Sainte-Colombe becomes worried that their joy will turn into something dangerous and destructive. The play is a social commentary on the excesses of the upper class and the dangers of unbridled happiness. It is a witty and satirical work that showcases Girardin's talent for sharp dialogue and insightful observations. La Joie Fait Peur: Comedie En Un Acte is a classic of French literature and a must-read for anyone interested in the history of French theater. With English Notes.
