A universal favorite, <i>The Importance of Being Earnest</i> displays Oscar Wilde's theatrical genius at its brilliant best. Subtitled "A Trivial Comedy for Serious People", this hilarious attack on Victorian manners and morals turns a pompous world on its head, lets duplicity lead to happiness, and makes riposte the highest form of art. Also included in this special collection are Wilde's first comedy success, <i>Lady Windermere's Fan</i>, and his richly sensual melodrama, <i>Salome</i>.
