Description
The full text of Oscar Wilde’s beloved comedy of manners, including exclusive commentary, selections from Wilde’s correspondence, and excerpts from the original four-act version.
The Importance of Being Earnest shows a full measure of Oscar Wilde’s legendary wit, and embodies more than any of his other plays his decency and warmth.
This edition contains substantial excerpts from the original four-act version which was never produced, as well as the full text of the final three-act version, selections from Wilde’s correspondence, and commentary by George Bernard Shaw, Max Beerbohm, St. John Hankin, and James Agate.
“It is exquisitely trivial, a delicate bubble of fancy and it has its philosophy; that we should treat all trivial things of life seriously, and all the serious things of life with sincere and studied triviality.” -Oscar Wilde
