Some of Wilde's best quotations came from this play!I have read this play many times, and seen it preformed twice, and each time, reading or watching, is always funny! The plot of blackmail and politics is always good for a cutting remark by Wilde, but the entire social satire is just perfect! You'll enjoy this perfectly delightful volume!

An Ideal Husband is an Ideal Wilde,
By Nice Person (North America) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An Ideal Husband (Paperback)
British politician Lord Robert Chiltern is blackmailed by the immoral Mrs. Cheverly, with a secret from his youth, leading to a crisis in his life, and in his marriage to the virtuous Lady Chiltern. It is up to his friend, the delightfully foppish Lord Goring to help extricate him. All is well that ends well, but not after much witty interplay and intrigue and masterful wordsmithing by Oscar.Wilde shows us that the acceptance of our loved ones' flaws is perhaps the corner stone of love. Oscar Wilde examines love, honesty, friendship, and forgiveness with a humorous, witty happy ending. |
