Everybody Loves Ernest... But Nobody's Quite Sure Who He Really Is
Oscar Wilde's unique humour and superb wit pokes fun at the established classes of 19th Century England in a story of love, manners and naughty aliases. Written in 1896, it pits Jack (also known as Ernest) against his lifelong friend Algernon (who poses as Ernest) as they pursue the hearts of the fair Gwendolin and Cecily, all under the auspicious eyes of Lady Bracknell.
