Excerpt from Lovers: The Free Woman They: Three Plays Life to Maurice Donnay is a series of love stories. He once said, "A play is a love story, and since that story is laid in various places, we are led to believe that plays differ." And Donnay's plays differ among themselves only in the degree to and manner in which they are treated. Sex is the motive power which actuates his characters: it is the protagonist of all his work. It might almost be urged that free love - if by free we mean independent of the conventions of marriage and society - is the subject of his stories. He is very little concerned with morality, and the rare occasions upon which he ventures to treat it are to be found not in the plays, but in interviews and prefaces. In his Dedication to Moliere (in Le Menage de Moliere) he says: "The conjugal accident no longer amuses us: it appears to us as a social necessity, yes, a shameful but logical consequence of marriage as it is most frequently practised in the society of our day." In his best plays, like Lovers and The Free Woman, this dramatist is content merely to paint certain sections of life as he sees them, to analyze the thoughts and sensations of his lovers, and to allow the audience to draw what conclusions it will. Only by implication is it possible to read into these plays any moral attitude: Donnay is far too great an artist to attach a moral to his work, or attempt to develop one out of the action or the interplay of character upon character.
