The Walls Of Jericho: A Play In Four Acts

The Walls of Jericho is a play in four acts written by Alfred Sutro. The play is set in London during the early 20th century and follows the story of a wealthy family, the Levisons, who are struggling to maintain their social status and reputation in the face of scandal and financial difficulties. The play opens with the arrival of a mysterious stranger, Mr. David Williams, who claims to be a distant relative of the Levisons. As the play unfolds, it becomes clear that Williams has a hidden agenda and is determined to use his connection to the family to gain access to their wealth and power. The Walls of Jericho is a complex drama that explores themes of family, class, and social climbing. It also touches on issues of morality and the lengths to which people will go to protect their reputations and maintain their social standing. Sutro's writing is known for its wit and intelligence, and The Walls of Jericho is no exception. The play is filled with clever dialogue and sharp observations about the society in which it is set. It is a thought-provoking and engaging work that continues to be performed and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
