Eugene Brieux was lauded by George Bernard Shaw as the greatest French dramatist since Moliere. His play "Damaged Goods" took Washington, D.C., and New York by storm, in 1913 -- and still wins admirers for its unflinching depiction of social ills through its novelized version, by the author of "The Jungle." |
