The Art Of Being Bored: A Comedy In Three Acts is a play written by Edouard Pailleron and first published in 1920. The play is a humorous exploration of the concept of boredom and how it affects individuals in different ways. The story follows the lives of two aristocratic families, the de Montalemberts and the de Chavignys, who are both struggling to find meaning and purpose in their lives. The de Montalemberts are a family of artists and intellectuals who are constantly searching for new and exciting experiences, while the de Chavignys are a more conservative family who prefer to stick to tradition and routine. The play is set in Paris and features a cast of eccentric characters, including a hypochondriac doctor, a bored housewife, and a young man who is obsessed with death. Throughout the play, Pailleron uses humor and wit to explore the themes of boredom, ennui, and the search for happiness and fulfillment. The Art Of Being Bored is a classic example of French comedy and a must-read for anyone interested in the genre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
