Publisher's Synopsis
The Artist: A Drama Without Words is a book written by H.L. Mencken and published in 1920. The book is a play that is unique in that it does not contain any spoken dialogue. Instead, the story is told through actions, gestures, and facial expressions of the characters. The play follows the life of an artist as he struggles with his creativity, his relationships, and his own inner demons. The story is set in the early 20th century and explores themes of love, jealousy, and the pursuit of artistic perfection. The book is a fascinating exploration of the power of nonverbal communication and the complexities of human emotion. Mencken's writing is insightful and thought-provoking, making The Artist a must-read for anyone interested in the arts or the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
