The Importance of Being Earnest - A Trivial Comedy for Serious People

Více o knize

Set in Victorian England, this play explores themes of identity and social conventions through witty dialogue and humorous situations. The characters, including the charming Jack and the mischievous Algernon, engage in a series of misunderstandings and deceptions centered around the concept of "Bunburying" — creating fictitious personas to escape societal obligations. Wilde's sharp satire critiques the absurdities of the upper class, making it a timeless commentary on the nature of truth and the trivialities of life.
