| Summary | "Karma: A Re-incarnation Play" by Algernon Blackwood and V. A. Pearn is a theatrical work written in the early 20th century, consisting of a prologue, epilogue, and three acts. The play explores profound themes of love, sacrifice, and the spiritual connections that bind people across lives. The opening portion introduces the character Phillip Lattin, a British agent, and his wife, Mrs. Lattin, who is struggling with a mysterious illness and a deep spiritual sense of unease. At the start of the play, Mrs. Lattin is lying on a sofa in their London home, waiting for her husband after he returns from a government meeting concerning Egypt. Their conversation reveals her fears about going back to Egypt, where she believes she experiences haunting dreams and an instinctive dread. Phillip reassures her of his dedication, having decided to take six months of leave from his job to stay by her side. However, as they speak, Mrs. Lattin expresses a deep yearning for understanding and forgiveness, hinting at a larger spiritual narrative connected to their past lives. The dialogue sets the stage for the exploration of reincarnation and the intertwining of their souls across different historical eras, which will be developed in the subsequent acts.
