Summary |
"Enchantment" by Harold MacGrath is a collection of whimsical adventure stories written in the early 20th century. The book features various characters embroiled in charmingly peculiar circumstances, promising a light-hearted exploration of romance, mistaken identities, and some playful encounters that blur the lines between reality and fantasy. At the start of "Enchantment," the protagonist, a playwright, finds himself unexpectedly drawn into an intriguing scenario on the night before his play's debut. As he decides to sneak into the theater, he encounters a beautiful woman in a coupé who mistakes him for someone else, leading to an adventurous ride through the city. This mistaken identity sets the scene for a night filled with unexpected events, playful banter, and the protagonist’s internal musings about romance, adventure, and the thrill of the unknown as he navigates his new reality alongside this mysterious lady.
