The Amazing Interlude

"The Amazing Interlude" is a romance by Mary Roberts Rinehart.

Excerpt: The stage on which we play our little dramas of life and love has for most of us but one setting. It is furnished out with approximately the same things. Characters come, move about and make their final exits through long-familiar doors. And the back drop remains approximately the same from beginning to end. So Sara Lee Kennedy had a back drop that had every appearance of permanency. The great Scene Painter apparently intended that there should be no change of set for her. Sara Lee herself certainly expected none. But now and then amazing things are done on this great stage of ours: lights go down; the back drop, which had given the illusion of solidity, reveals itself transparent. A sort of fairyland transformation takes place. And then the lights go out, and it is the same old back drop again, and the lady is back by the fire - but with a memory.©2017 Audioliterature (P)2017 Audioliterature
