More about the book
Set in a small town, the play features two unmarried sisters, Miss Deborah and Miss Angelica Prim, who uphold strict social propriety. Their lives are disrupted by the arrival of Mr. Frederick Delamere, who becomes enamored with Angelica, much to Deborah's disapproval due to his perceived lower social status. The story unfolds with romantic entanglements and comedic misunderstandings, satirizing societal norms and the challenges faced by 19th-century unmarried women in the realm of courtship.
