Synopsis "The Blue Bird"

A luminous Symbolist fairy play about happiness, memory, wonder, and learning to see what has always been close at hand.On Christmas Eve, Tyltyl and Mytyl, the children of a poor woodcutter, are sent by the fairy Bérylune in search of the mysterious Blue Bird of Happiness. Guided by Light, they journey through the Land of Memory, the Palace of Night, the Forest, the Palace of Happiness, and the Kingdom of the Future. Along the way, animals and everyday objects come alive, the unseen becomes visible, and the children encounter joys, fears, memories, and possibilities they could never have imagined.First performed in Moscow in 1908, The Blue Bird became an international success and remains one of the best-known works of Belgian Symbolist playwright Maurice Maeterlinck, recipient of the 1911 Nobel Prize in Literature. Part fairy tale, part philosophical drama, the play uses the wonder of childhood to explore an enduring question: where do we find happiness?This Crestance Press edition presents Alexander Teixeira de Mattos's complete English translation from Maeterlinck's original French, thoughtfully prepared and illustrated for contemporary readers. Both an imaginative fairy play and a classic of European drama, The Blue Bird invites readers of different generations into a strange, beautiful world in which the ordinary is never quite as ordinary as it seems.
