"Cecily Cardew and Gwendolen Fairfax are both in love with the same mythical suitor. Jack Worthing has wooed Gwendolen as Earnest, while Algernon has also posed as Earnest to win the heart of Jack's ward, Cecily. When all four arrive at Jack's country home on the same weekend--the "rivals" to fight for Earnest's undivided attention and the "Earnests" to claim their beloveds--pandemonium breaks loose"--Page 4 of cover.

Such wit in dialogue is a delectable joy!

I think this is the first time I've read this play since high school. It's even more wonderful than I had remembered. There are so many fantastic lines and quotable quotations! There was barely a moment I wasn't laughing the whole way through, and I think the humor works even better for me now that I'm over 20 years older than the last time I read it. I suspect I will be accusing friends of vulgarly talking like a dentist over dinner in the near future.
