A Touch Of The Poet by Eugene O'Neill
Set in a New England town in the early 19th century, the drama follows an aging Irish immigrant whose bluster, vanity and self-mythologizing about aristocratic past collide with the harsh realities of his family’s decline and a society that will not indulge his pretensions; his stubborn pride and clinging to illusion spark personal humiliation, conflict and tragic consequences, offering a meditation on identity, disillusionment and the gap between romantic dreams and American social life.
