Importance of Being Earnest (Legend Classics) - Oscar Wilde

Descriere Importance of Being Earnest (Legend Classics) - Oscar Wilde

\nThe truth is rarely pure and never simple. \n\n \nOscar Wilde was already one of the best known literary figures in Britain when he was persuaded to turn his extraordinary talents to the theatre. Between 1891 and 1895 he produced a sequence of distinctive plays which spearheaded the dramatic renaissance of the 1890s and still retain their power among today's audiences.\n \nThe final comic or dramatic work from undisputed genius Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest, A Trivial Comedy for Serious People is his most enduring popular play and a must-read for any Wilde fan.\n \nA farcical comedy in which the protagonists maintain fictitious person to escape burdensome social obligations, the play is an unforgettable satire of Victorian ways. Working within the social conventions of late Victorian London, the play's major theme is the triviality with which it treats institutions.\n \nWilde's notoriety caused the play, despite its early success, to be closed after 86 performances. This latest edition allows you to discover or enjoy once again the writing of one of history's great comedy and drama writers.\n \nThe Legend Classics series: \nAround the World in Eighty Days \nThe Adventures of Huckleberry Finn \nThe Importance of Being Earnest \nAlice's Adventures in Wonderland \nThe Metamorphosis \nThe Railway Children \nThe Hound of the Baskervilles \nFrankenstein \nWuthering Heights \nThree Men in a Boat \nThe Time Machine \nLittle Women \nAnne of Green Gables \nThe Jungle Book \nThe Yellow Wallpaper and Other Stories \nDracula \nA Study in Scarlet \nLeaves of Grass \nThe Secret Garden \nThe War of the Worlds \nA Christmas Carol \nStrange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde \nHeart of Darkness \nThe Scarlet Letter \nThis Side of Paradise \nOliver Twist \nThe Picture of Dorian Gray \nTreasure Island \nThe Turn of the Screw \nThe Adventures of Tom Sawyer \nEmma \nThe Trial \nA Selection of Short Stories by Edgar Allan Poe \nGrimm Fairy Tales \nThe Awakening \nMrs Dalloway \nGulliver's Travels \nThe Castle of Otranto \nSilas Marner \nHard Times\n
