Read: The Importance of Being Ernest, a play by Oscar Wilde
Good fellow Mister Wilde would for sure have been one interesting person to talk to. He really is a master of the play on words, independent of the story line and its depth. This short play was really fun reading, although the plot is not really twisted and somewhat foreseeable. The characters are portrayed in a distinct way, and the few pages are full of sentences usable of quotes of their own, showing for example the hypocrisy of the Victorian age, but this is obvious timeless.
“In matters of grave importance, style, not sincerity, is the vital thing.”
