George Conway Monologue from East of Suez: A Play in Seven Scenes

From East of Suez: A Play in Seven Scenes by W. Somerset (William Somerset) Maugham

male · anguished · 52 sec

If I perish I perish. Oh, of course I love you. All night I'm tortured with love and tortured with jealousy, but the day does come at last and then I can get hold of myself again. My love is some horrible thing gnawing at my heart-strings. I hate it and despise it. But I can fight it, fight it all the time. Oh, I've been here too long. I ought to have got back to work long ago. Work is my only chance. Daisy, I beseech you to let me go. (DAISY: How can I let you go? I love you.) (Thunderstruck.) You? (Impatiently, with a shrug of the shoulders.) Oh, you're talking nonsense.
