The Lamp and the Bell: A Drama in Five Acts is a play written by Edna St. Vincent Millay. The story revolves around two sisters, one a nun and the other a sculptor, who are reunited after years apart. The play explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the conflict between artistic and religious pursuits. As the sisters reconnect, they grapple with their differing paths in life and the choices they have made. The play's title is symbolic of the sisters' opposing passions: the lamp represents the nun's devotion to God and the bell represents the sculptor's artistic calling. The play is known for its poetic language and complex characters, and has been praised for its exploration of 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.
