Oscar Wilde took London by storm with his first comedy, "Lady Windermere`s Fan". The combination of dazzling wit, subtle social criticism, sumptuous settings and the theme of a guilty secret proved a winner, both here and in his next three plays, "A Woman of No Importance", "An Ideal Husband", and his undisputed masterpiece, "The Importance of Being Earnest". This volume includes all Wilde`s plays from his early tragedy "Vera" to the controversial "Salome" and the little known fragments, "La Sainte Courtisane" and "A Florentine Tragedy". The edition affords a rare chance to see Wilde`s best known work in the context of his entire dramatic output, and to appreciate plays which have hitherto received scant critical attention. Wilde`s plays have never failed to delight audiences and are a lasting testimony to their author`s supreme wit and theatrical genius. Формат: 12,5 см х 19,5 см.
