This book marks the second 'collaboration' between Holland and Priestley as she had three years before novelised his play Dangerous Corner in 1933 a paperback issue by Mellifont Library London. Ms. Holland was at the time known for at least one work of popular contemporary fiction of her own The Lost Generation a wartime novel. She was also by way of Priestley's second marriage his sister-in-law. Visually the external appearance is more than acceptable and particularly internally is in an exceptional condition/state of preservation and presentation for a book of it's 90 year-old age. It really is an exceptional exemplary example for it's brightness cleanliness and lack of usual/any other age-acquired detracting faults commonly encountered in a book of a comparable age. In order to get rid of his sponging relatives a man declares to them that he is a master forger. Considerable doubt begins to arise about whether he may actually be telling the truth. A comedy-drama play by Priestley which was first staged in 1933. It was one of Priestley's earliest hits. The play premiered at the Duchess Theatre 28th November 1933. In its initial run it had over 300 performances. It made its Broadway debut at Booth's Theatre on 14 January 1935 and ran for 131 performances. In 1936 the play was adapted into a film Laburnham Grove directed by Carol Reed starring Edmund Gwenn and Victoria Hopper. It was made by Associated Talking Pictures at Ealing Studios.
