The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde

The Importance of Being Earnest is widely regarded as one to the great works of modern literature, and Oscar Wilde an inaugurator and master of Modernism. This brilliantly funny farce about mistaken identities, secret engagements and lover’s entanglements is filled with Wilde’s mischievous wit and subversive insights about the English upper class, the vanity of high society and truth itself.
