About this listen

Eugene O’Neill’s tale of Ephraim Cabot, greedy and hard like the stone walls that surround his farm, the family patriarch brings home his new young bride, Abbie. His grown sons dissaprove; one leaves but the other stays to fight for the family fortune. What follows is a tragedy of epic proportions.

Great classic play. Unfortunately the dramatisation does not do it justice. Acting is rather poor, especially the father and Abbie.

average acting, especially Abbie and the father.
