A major statement on the female artist's quest for freedom and self-realisation in a community uncertain of its standards, the epic play is full of lyricism, music, satire and self-parody. It traces Sally's life from school days, through lovers, attempted suicide, marriage and politics to disillusion. At the end of her life, the artist's ever-present sense of failure is ironically coupled with worldly success. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dorothy Hewett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Currency Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/11\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 98\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.39w x 0.27d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780868198149\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eHewett, Dorothy:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - DOROTHY HEWETT achieved distinction as a playwright, poet and novelist. Her stage works include The Chapel Perilous, Mrs Porter and the Angels, Bon-Bons and Roses for Dolly, The Golden Oldies, Pandora's Cross, The Man from Mukinupin, Golden Valley, The Fields of Heaven and Nowhere. The plays range in style but all exploit the imaginative possibilities of language, music and theatrical effects. Many of her early plays in particular shocked audiences with their explicit female sexuality, and she retained a maverick image and an ability to polarise audiences and critics through her life. Hewett also published eleven volumes of poetry, with three novels, a collection of short stories and an autobiography.","brand":"Ingram","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":52152112447771,"sku":"9780868198149","price":26.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/8392\/2459\/files\/img_a63be9d3-3d2b-4ada-b4c4-d07a8f3189f5.jpg?v=1777744708","url":"https:\/\/sapphicsociety.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-chapel-perilous-9780868198149","provider":"Sapphic Society","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
