Review # 1 was written on 2015-02-06 00:00:00 WREN MASSEY The Ginger Cat and Mr Faithful is two of the three plays in this collection and they are reason enough to have tried Lord Dunsany modern comedic plays. They are really funny 90 years later, great satire, sharp, witty kind of humour that introduction writer to the book says for a good reason is a precursor to the best kind of smart "Britcom". Blackadder,Monty Python kind of smart brit humor. I specially enjoyed the satire,making fools out political figures, modern(his times 1920s) values, dramatic romantic love. |
Review # 2 was written on 2015-05-23 00:00:00 Bill Andrew The title play was quite disappointing, given that the cat was the object of a pot shot with an air gun by the upper class twit protagonist. Fortunately he missed but that's not enough to erase the black mark on his character, one among many. He's cast in the mold of Bertie Wooster but using far inferior stuff. The second play was a short barroom drama with a very nasty twist. What saves the book is the third play, Mr. Faithful, which very nearly rises to the level of a Wodehouse farce, definitely good fun. |
