Excerpt from This Generation: A Play
Scene: - The comfortable smoking-room of Tremayne's house in Holland Park - tastefully and very artistically furnished. The pictures (Medici Society prints, and so on) are few in number. The fireplace and door are on the right. Two windows on the left. There are folding-doors at the back which are thrown open as the curtain rises to admit Tremayne, Baxter, and Dickinson. A dinner-table spread with dessert is seen.
George Tremayne is a good-looking man about thirty-five. Ardent and enthusiastic for the welfare of others, he has long suffered from a sense of the inconsistency of his position - for he is at the same time a prosperous manufacturer and a whole-hearted Socialist. He is filled with pity for those who suffer. There is something of Tolstoi's idealism in his nature. And his views grow more uncompromising and unworldly as the need of a new life for all men presses upon him.
