SHEPARDSON BOOKSTALL, 20 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE. BOOK: Brown Leatherette with CI Catalog with 12 titles listed at front; Gold BL logo on front plus gold author name and title on spine; brown endpapers; brown top-stain; wear on both top and bottom spine edges and along bottom. STORY: Maeterlinck s small gem is decidedly different in being a comedy. As nephews Gustavus and Achilles hold a funeral dinner for their dead Aunt Hortensia, a ragged stranger convinces the maid Virginia that he is Saint Antony of Padua (1195-1213) sent by God to resurrect the dead woman. For the nephews who had counted on their wealthy aunt s inheritance, this is not such welcome news. On a smaller scale rich with irony and humour, Maeterlinck portrays the old question whether humanity would not recrucify Christ should he return.
