"My husband exists only insofar as he bores me." --from Italo Svevo's _An Unpublished Play_.

Selection also includes _Before the Ball_, a brief and lively monologue of a young but already jaded girl awaiting her aunt's carriage: "If anyone talks to me about the weather, I’ll say: 'It's only my second ball, and I already know everything there is to know about winter weather. Wait for summer and we’ll talk about it again.'"

About the Author

Italo Svevo (1861-1928), born Aron Ettore Schmitz in Trieste, then in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, is most well known for his novel _La coscienza di Zeno_. His work for the theater is much less well known and has been made available in English translation only sporadically. Included here are _An Unpublished Play_ and _Before the Ball_.
