A Woman of No Importance

Meer over het boek

Set in a country house, the play explores themes of morality and societal expectations through the interactions of English aristocrats. Lord Illingworth, with his charming yet dubious character, contrasts sharply with Mrs. Arbuthnot, who harbors a secret past. The dynamics between her son, Gerald Arbuthnot, and the young American Hester Worsley add layers of complexity to the narrative, highlighting issues of class and personal integrity within an elite social circle.
