Mr. Pim Passes By

A Comedy In Three Acts

Beschreibung

"Mr. Pim Passes By" is a comedy play in three acts written by A.A. Milne. The play revolves around the character of Mr. Pim, a man who unexpectedly arrives at the Marden household and begins to unravel their previously quiet and ordinary lives. Mr. Pim's arrival sets off a chain of events that leads to confusion, misunderstandings, and ultimately, a realization of what is truly important in life. The play deals with themes of love, honesty, and the unexpected twists and turns that life can take. "Mr. Pim Passes By" was first performed in London in 1919 and became one of Milne's most successful plays.

Autor

Alan Alexander Milne was an English author best known for his books about the teddy bear Winnie-the-Pooh and for children's poetry. Milne was primarily a dramatist before the enormous popularity of Winnie-the-Pooh eclipsed all of his earlier work. Milne fought in both World Wars, as a lieutenant in the Royal Warwickshire Regiment in WWI and a captain in the Home Guard in WWII. Alan Alexander Milne was born in Kilburn, London, on January 18, 1882, to Jamaican-born John Vine Milne and Sarah Marie Milne. He was raised at Henley House School, 6/7 Mortimer Road (now Crescent), Kilburn, a small independent school owned by his father. H. G. Wells was one of his teachers from 1889 to 1890. Milne attended Westminster School and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he received a mathematics scholarship and graduated with a B.A. in Mathematics in 1903. He edited and wrote for Granta, a student publication. He cooperated with his brother Kenneth on articles that appeared under the letters AKM.
