A universal favorite The Importance of Being Earnest displays Oscar Wilde's theatrical genius
at its brilliant best. Subtitled A Trivial Comedy for Serious People this hilarious attack on
Victorian manners and morals turns a pompous world on its head lets duplicity lead to
happiness and makes riposte the highest form of art. Also included in this special collection
are Wilde's first comedy success Lady Windermere's Fan and his richly sensual melodrama
Salome.
