Fishpingle

Excerpt from Fishpingle: A Romance of the Countryside A last word. I wrote a book and a comedy entitled The book appeared first and then the play. Some critics took for granted that the play was a dramatization of the novel. They happened to be wrong. The comedy was written before the book. In this case, my comedy Fishpingle was produced at the Haymarket Theatre in 1916. The novel will appear in 1917. I leave it to the same critics to guess which was written first.
