The Porcupine: A Drama in Three Acts

Edwin Arlington Robinson's comedy "Van Zorn" proved him to be
one of the most accomplished of the younger generation of American dramatists.
Of this play the `Boston Transcript' said, "It is an effective presentation
of modern life in New York City, in which a poet shows
his skill of playwrighting . . . he brings to the American drama to-day
a thing it sadly lacks, and that is character." In manner and technique
Mr. Robinson's new play, "The Porcupine", recalls some of the work of Ibsen.
Written adroitly and with the literary cleverness exhibited in "Van Zorn",
it tells a story of a domestic entanglement in a dramatic fashion
well calculated to hold the reader's attention.
"Contains all of the qualities that are said to be conspicuously lacking
in American Drama." -- `N. Y. Evening Sun'.


Van Zorn: A Comedy in Three Acts
Cloth, 12mo, $1.25

Mr. Robinson is known as the leader of present-day American poets.
In this delightful play he tells with a biting humor
the story of the salvation of a soul. By clever arrangement of incident
and skillful characterization he arouses strongly the reader's curiosity,
and the suspense is admirably sustained.
