The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde

The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde

Jack has invented a wicked younger brother called Ernest as an excuse to leave the country whenever he likes. Algernon has invented a permanently ill friend called Bunbury for the same purpose. Both women they love have decided they could only marry a man named Ernest.

Wilde called it a trivial comedy for serious people, and it is the most perfectly constructed farce in English. Almost every line is quotable, Lady Bracknell's interrogation of Jack is the funniest scene in the language, and the whole thing is a demolition of Victorian respectability disguised as a drawing-room comedy.

Wilde's masterpiece, first performed weeks before his arrest. Complete with notes.
