Excerpt from A Cigarette-Maker's RomanceTm: inner room of a tobacconist's shop is not perhaps the spot which a writer of fiction would naturally choose as the theatre of his play, nor does the inventor of pleasant romances, of stirring inci dent, or moving love-tales feel himself instinctively inclined to turn to Munich as to the city of his dreams. On the other hand, it is by no means certain that, if the choice of a stage for our per formance were offered to the most contented among us, we should be satisfied to Speak our parts and go through our actor's business upon the boards of this world. Some would prefer to take their pro petties, their player's crowns and robes, their aspiring expressions and their finely expressed aspirations before the audience of a larger planet, others, perhaps the majority, would choose, with more humility as well as with more common sense.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
