Happy Alchemy: Writings On The Theatre And Other Lively Arts by Robertson Davies

The Happy Alchemy in this delightful book blends witty entertainment with thought-provoking instruction. Touching on everything from Shakespeare’s Falstaff to Canada’s constitutional wrangles (“our own version of a civil war”) and from “How I Write a Book” to Richard Wagner, “that extraordinary genius and dreadful crook,” this is in every way a worthy companion to The Merry Heart. This book also draws on the polished but unpublished speeches, book reviews, and other articles that Robertson Davies left behind. This 1997 Penguin Paperback is in fair condition. Previous owner's nameplate inside; tanning.
