This review is from: The Importance of Being Ernest: A Reader's Companion (Twayne's Masterwork Studies) (Paperback)
Nobody seems to write about this comedy except elegantly and wittily. This is one of the best extended essays. An ideal companion to the Bloom's Modern Critical Interpretations series selection on the masterpiece.
