JEALOUSY LOVE

Story:

Amazing JEALOUSY LOVE STORY. Even a middling novelist can tell quite a lot of truth. His humble medium is on the side of truth. Whereas the theatre, even at its most ‘realistic’, is connected with the level at which, and the methods by which, we tell our everyday lies. This is the sense in which ‘ordinary’ theatre resembles life, and dramatists are disgraceful liars unless they are very good. On the other hand, in a purely formal sense the theatre is the nearest to poetry of all the arts. I used to think that if I could have been a poet I would never have bothered with the theatre at all, but of course this is nonsense. What I needed with all my starved and silent soul was just that particular way of shouting back at the world. The theatre is an attack on mankind carried on by magic: to victimise an audience every night, to make them laugh and cry and suffer and miss their trains. Of course actors regard audiences as enemies, to be deceived, drugged, incarcerated, stupefied. This is partly because the audience is also a court against which there is no appeal.


I took a moment, sighed and exclaimed, "Everything"


This book is a psycho-spiritual masterpiece of the highest caliber. I decided to sit down and come up with a laundry list of what it is about:


the stars and earth


, isolation, connection, misunderstandings, avoidance,


uddhist demons and Christian saints,


dreams, concussions, drownings, death


petty cruelties, belittlement and acts of supreme generosity


heterosexual passions and homosexual cravings


theatre, woodworking, cooking and music


merboys, seals, ghosts and sea dragons


vengeance and apathy


interpretations, neurosis and delusions


minutiae and momentary insights


sullen villagers and grandiose urbanites


dogs, cats and many roses


lost loves and childhood musings


churches, taxis and pubs


murderous rages and spiritual awakenings


vulgarities and


stagnation,
