The Importance of Being Earnest - Global Classics
"I am sick to death of cleverness. Everybody is clever nowadays. You can't go anywhere without meeting clever people." The Importance of Being Earnest, 1895
One of Oscar Wilde's most successful plays, 'The Importance of Being Earnest' is a comedic play that ridicules Victorian society's attitudes towards marriage, identity, and social obligations. The plot focuses on two protagonists, who create fictitious personas to escape their social duties and pursue romantic interests. Through a series of humorous misunderstandings and witty dialogue, the play remains one of Wilde's most enduring and popular works.
