Text
Eugene O'Neill sailed to Shanghai on the S.S. 'André Lebon'. He noted an idea for a play called Unchartered sea, which would depict the romance between a beautiful young woman, apparently Chinese, of the East and an American poet from the West. They are viewed as pariahs by the prejudiced bourgeoisie. O'Neill writes of 'the conflict of races on board, the trend of the races of the world struggle today, the essential characteristics, the awakening of the East to the West'.
