Book Overview
Old Heads and Young Hearts is a comedic play written by Dion Boucicault and originally published in 1848. The play is set in Ireland and follows the story of a wealthy landowner, Sir Valentine Blake, and his attempts to marry off his daughter, Rosabel, to a wealthy suitor. However, Rosabel has other plans and falls in love with a poor but honest farmer named Con O'Neil. The play explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations as the characters navigate their relationships and try to find happiness. The title of the play refers to the contrast between the older generation, represented by Sir Valentine, and the younger generation, represented by Rosabel and Con. The play is known for its witty dialogue and comedic situations, and has been performed numerous times over the years.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
