Originally produced by the Provincetown Players in 1915, SUPPRESSED DESIRES satirizes the then-current obsession with dream interpretation: Henrietta, is unable to stop over-analyzing the dreams of her husband, Stephen, and sister, Mabel.

With his wife, George Cram Cook (1873-1924) established the Provincetown Players in 1915. 1911's The Chasm has been described as more of a socialist tract than a novel, exploring the chasms between America and Russia, capitalists and workers, aristocrats and peasants, and Nietzsche and Marx.
