Domestic Experiments and Other Plays is a collection of plays written by I. E. M. Aitken and first published in 1901. The collection includes four plays: Domestic Experiments, The New Woman, The Man in the Street, and The Other Side of the Hedge. Domestic Experiments is a comedy that explores the relationship between a husband and wife who are both scientists. They conduct experiments on each other in order to understand the nature of love and attraction. The New Woman is a satirical play that mocks the feminist movement of the time. The Man in the Street is a drama that examines the lives of working-class people and the struggles they face. The Other Side of the Hedge is a fantasy play that takes place in a world where the dead can communicate with the living.Overall, Domestic Experiments and Other Plays offers a diverse range of genres and themes, from comedy to drama and from social commentary to fantasy. Aitken's writing style is witty and engaging, and the plays provide a unique insight into the social and cultural issues of the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
