More about the book

Set in the late 17th century, this play explores themes of love, deception, and social intrigue among the English aristocracy. The witty dialogue and complex characters, including a clever schemer and a pair of star-crossed lovers, highlight the battle of the sexes and the intricacies of courtship. Congreve’s sharp satire critiques societal norms and the hypocrisy of the upper class, making it a significant work in Restoration comedy that remains relevant for its exploration of human relationships and societal expectations.
