The Hasty Heart tells of a wounded Scottish soldier whose last few weeks of life, spent in a convalescent ward of a hospital in the Orient, are changed by the sympathetic treatment his fellow patients try to give him-and his stubborn rejection of this
The man's extreme independence of spirit nearly wrecks the good intentions of those who want to make him happy, but at last-particularly after he falls in love with the nurse-he learns the great lesson of love for his neighbor
"A fine, funny, strangely fascinating play. Tense, touching and tender," -Journal-American
