To keep silence about so monstrous a wrong as this merely because the subject is a tabooed one was not possible to Brieux.
But there are other cases such as that depicted by Brieux in "Les Avariés."
Brieux, in Blanchette, gave promise of talent, which he has since in a great measure justified.
The prohibited plays of Brieux and Ibsen have been performed in London in this way with complete impunity.
One of the most notable of modern plays is Brieux's Les Avariés .
