Lovers' Quarrels - Paperback
by Jean Baptiste Poquelin de Molière (Author), Richard Wilbur (Translator)
"I came to see that a line that simply says 'I love you, ' at the right point in the show, is entirely adequate, that a great deal of verbal sophistication is not necessarily called for. . . . Speak-ability is so important. That's something I slowly had to learn about poetry, and something I had to work on always with Moli re."--Richard Wilbur
