From the back cover: "Oscar Wilde's legendary wit dazzles in 'The Importance of Being Earnest', one of the greatest and most popular works of drama to emerge from Victorian England. A light-hearted satire of the absurdity of all forms and conventions, this comic masterpiece features an unforgettable cast of characters who, as critic Max Beerbohm observed, 'speak a kind of beautiful nonsense - the language of high comedy, twisted into fantasy'. The collection also includes Oscar Wilde's most famous comedies, 'Lady Windermere's Fan', 'A Woman of No Importance', and 'An Ideal Husband', as well as his poetic tragedy 'Salomé' - all written between 1891 and 1895, Wilde's most creative period."
