The Importance of Being Earnest

Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde was an Irish playwright, poet, and author of numerous short stories, and one novel. Known for his biting wit, and a plentitude of aphorisms, he became one of the most successful playwrights of the late Victorian era in London, and one of the greatest celebrities of his day. Several of his plays continue to be widely performed, especially The Importance of Being Earnest.As the result of a widely covered series of trials, Wilde suffered a dramatic downfall and was imprisoned for two years hard labour after being convicted of "gross indecency" with other men. After Wilde was released from prison he set sail for Dieppe by the night ferry. He never returned to Ireland or Britain, and died in poverty.

Wilde was both a glittering wordsmith and a social outsider. His drama emerges out of these two perhaps contradictory identities, combining epigrammatic brilliance and shrewd social observation. This book includes "Lady Windermere's Fan", "Salome", "A Woman of No Importance", "An Ideal Husband", "A Florentine Tragedy" and "The Importance of Being Earnest", which appears in full with the 'Grigsby' scene which originally made up the fourth act.

王尔德算不上一个好的剧作家，恩。比如这部the importance of being earnest，无论男女、老少、主仆，十来号人说起话来都是一个调调，我晕~~ 一样伶牙俐齿，玩世不恭，每个人的嘴里都时不时冒出几句王氏招牌悖论，害得我老觉得是王尔德一人分饰多角自言自语了三幕！自负机智诙...

BBC radio. Coincidences and love stories between two men fond of bunburying between town and country and two women both girlishly wanting to marry someone whose name was Earnest. The number of engagement and christening seemed to be above average. Hahahahaha????.
