'To lose one parent may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness.' Isn't it great that Wilde's comedies of society, written more than a hundred years ago, would be so relevant and funny today, too? The Importance of Being Earnest is a glorious comedy of mistaken identity, which ridicules codes of proper etiquette and social norm. Manners and morality are also victims of Oscar Wilde's wit in Lady Windermere's Fan, A Woman of No Importance, and An Ideal Husband, in which snobbishness and hypocrisy are made naked. Our edition is a joy to read. Buy it with confidence! Read more
