Morgan was unique for combining the roles of principal dramatic critic of The Times withthat of a practicing dramatist. The Daily Herald wrote that The Flashing Stream would 'indefinitely refute the old idea about the gulf between our preaching and the practice'. It was hailed as 'a masterpiece' by the Manchester Guardian, and also drew praise from The Telegraph who noted that 'it handles a major problem of humanity with passion and intelligence'. The combination of serious themes with dramatic tension and masterly craftsmanship was continued in his other plays, The River Line and The Burning Glass, which are also included in this collection. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe River Line was revived in the West End in Oct 2011, at the Jermyn Street Theatre.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Morgan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1849431825\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781849431828\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oberon Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/27\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 4.80w x 0.70d","brand":"Charles Morgan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125483368703,"sku":"9781849431828","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_26e701a8-6c2f-4d4c-9223-28f423627d42.jpg?v=1687442888","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/morgan-charles-morgan-9781849431828","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
