Description
The wittiest of a renowned playwright's masterful comedies
A master of the comedy of manners, William Congreve was the most elegant of the Restoration dramatists. With piercing accuracy, he depicted the shallow world of "society," where the right artifice in manners, fashion, and conversation-and money-eased the passage to success.
*Also includes The Old Bachelor, The Double Dealer, and Love for Love
