Frances Monologue from Waste: A Tragedy, In Four Acts

From Waste: A Tragedy, In Four Acts by Harley Granville-Barker

female · contemplative · 1:01 min

Let's go away somewhere... I'll make demands. I need refreshing as much as you. My joy of life has been withered in me... oh, for a long time now. We must kiss the earth again... take interest in common things, common people. There's so much of the world we don't know. There's air to breathe everywhere. Think of the flowers in a Tyrol valley in the early spring. One can walk for days, not hurrying, as soon as the passes are open. And the people are kind. There's Italy... there's Russia full of simple folk. When we've learned to be friends with them we shall both feel so much better.
