Comedy & Wit
by Oscar Wilde
Two bachelors invent fictional personas to escape social obligations, only to find their deceptions hilariously entangled when both women they court demand husbands named Earnest. Wilde's sparkling satire skewers Victorian propriety with razor-sharp wit and absurd situations. A timeless comedy of manners that remains brilliantly funny over a century later.
