A Man of Leisure is a play written by David Lowe and first published in 1903. The play is divided into three acts and follows the story of a man named Edward Hargrave, who is a wealthy and idle aristocrat. Despite his privileged position, Edward is deeply unhappy and unfulfilled, spending his days in a state of ennui and boredom. As the play progresses, Edward's life is thrown into chaos when he falls in love with a young woman named Beatrice, who is engaged to another man. Edward's obsession with Beatrice leads him to make a series of reckless decisions, putting his reputation and his life in danger. The play explores themes of love, class, and the meaning of life, as Edward struggles to find purpose and fulfillment in a world that seems to offer him everything but true happiness. With sharp dialogue and complex characters, A Man of Leisure is a gripping and thought-provoking play that continues to resonate with audiences today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
