Louquier's Third Act is a novel written by Katharine Fullerton Gerould. The story revolves around the life of a French actor named Louquier, who is known for his exceptional talent and charisma on stage. The novel follows Louquier's journey as he navigates through various challenges and obstacles in his personal and professional life.The book is divided into three acts, each portraying a different phase in Louquier's life. In the first act, Louquier is a struggling actor trying to make a name for himself in the theatre world. He is ambitious and determined to succeed, but his dreams are shattered when he falls in love with a married woman.In the second act, Louquier is at the peak of his career, and his fame and success have made him arrogant and egotistical. He becomes involved in a scandalous affair with a young actress, which threatens to ruin his reputation and career.The third act sees Louquier reflecting on his life and legacy. He is now an old man, and his health is failing. He realizes that he has lived a life full of regrets and missed opportunities. However, he still hopes to make amends and leave a positive impact on the world.Overall, Louquier's Third Act is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that explores themes such as love, ambition, success, and regret. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the theatre world or wants to gain insight into the human condition.Had it been human, its breath would have suffocated him, so close was its invisible countenance to his. He could not move his legs or feet, or his left arm, but his right elbow, pushed out across the wideish arm of the char, had a little margin still. He drove his elbow out farther, then strained up a tense forearm and dug the lighted cigarette into the air directly in front of his own face. So complete was his consciousness of this terrible imponderable thing that he expected it to feel pain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
