by CLAUDE MAURIAC translated and adapted by BARBARA BRAY
This play, by the distinguished French novelist and critic, first performed in Paris in 1966. is in two linked parts.
The first part presents a speeded-up version of the dialogue between a man and a . woman, from their marriage in. the early 1900s to the woman's death over 60 years later. The second part reverses the process and represents, in slow motion and expanded form. a dialogue which occurs briefly towards the end of the first part, between the woman and her husband's best friend.
