The French Have a Word for It
Georges Feydeau
Afraid to Fight
by Georges Courteline, Albert Bermel
Synopsis
It's morning and they have just come home from a dance.
The young husband is boiling with jealousy as he throws his weight-- and household objects-- around.
His wife danced with an army officer, even flirted with him.
He should have taken that officer outside and thrashed him.
Except that-- well, could he have been afraid to fight?
The action consists of a furious squabble between an enraged man and a taunting woman, handled with rich character humor.
