O'CASEY, Sean - Autograph Letter Signed (Als)

Torquay, Devon, 26 January 1955. Framed Letter. A one-page AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED (ALS) on a 7-3/4" x 9-1/2" blue aerogramme to Evalyn Barrett. In full: "Hurrah! That's what we all need, what we all should strive for -- courage to face what may be before us. A cardinal virtue. It doesn't mean that we shall be free from fear: it means that we shall over come fear, and go on bravely. I have, indeed, been afraid; often trembled with anxiety, but have usually shoved fear aside -- get thee behind me, Satan! and have gone on to meet whatever came to face me." Simply matted and framed with a cutout on the reverse to show the address in O'Casey's hand with his surname in the return address field. Crease from mailing. Not examined out of frame but appears Fine Committed socialist, O'Casey was the first Irish playwright of note to write about the Dublin working classes. His best-known plays are JUNO AND THE PAYCOCK and THE PLOUGH AND THE STARS.
