Other editions of book A Kiss for Cinderella,: A Comedy.

Set during World War I, this clever and funny play is an adaptation of the Cinderella story. A young maid allows herself to be called Cinderella and then she sort of takes on the story and traits of the fairy tale character. Four little girls she rescues help her imagine her life as the princess, and it is almost as if she is mentally unstable because of her beliefs. Indeed, she does appear in a kind of hospital in the third act, and the reader is left to guess whether or not the first two acts actually happened. However, the important thing is that she does not die and the policeman proposes with a pair of glass slippers for the small feet that are the height of perfection.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1920 edition. Excerpt: ... I The least distinguished person in 'Who's Who' has escaped, as it were, from that fashionable crush, and is spending a quiet evening at home. He is curled up in his studio, which is so dark that he would be invisible, had we not obligingly placed his wicker chair just where the one dim ray from the stove may strike his face. His eyes are closed luxuriously, and we could not learn much about him without first poking our fingers into them. According to the tome mentioned (to which we must return him before morning), Mr. Bodie is sixty-three, has exhibited in the Royal Academy, and is at present unmarried. They do not proclaim him comparatively obscure: they left it indeed to him to say the final word on this subject, and he has hedged. Let us put it in this way, that he occupies more space in his wicker chair than in the book, where nevertheless he looks as if it was rather lonely not to be a genius. He is a painter for the nicest of reasons, that it is delightful to live and die in a messy studio; for our part, we too should have become a painter had it not been that we always last 1 our paint-box. There is no spirited bidding to acquire Mr. Bodie's canvases: he loves them at first sight himself, and has often got up in the night to see how they are faring; but ultimately he has turned cold to them, and has even been known to offer them, in lieu of alms, to beggars, who departed cursing. We have a weakness for persons who don't get on, and so cannot help adding, though it is no business of ours, that Mr. Bodie had private means. Curled up in his wicker chair he is rather like an elderly cupid. We wish we could warn him that the policeman is coming. The policeman comes: in his hand the weapon that has knocked down more malefactors than...
