More about the book
Set in Elizabethan England, this comedy by John Lyly stands out for its blend of farce and social realism. Departing from his typical classical and courtly themes, Lyly presents a "vulgar realistic play of rustic life," offering a fresh perspective on the everyday experiences of common people. This shift in focus highlights the humor and struggles of rural existence, making it a distinctive entry in Lyly's body of work.
