This Victorian comedy of manners sparkles with Wilde's trademark repartee, epigrams, and witty dialogue. Arch-moralist Lady Windermere, shattered by the suspicion of her husband's infidelity, contemplates running off with a roue until her rival illustrates the difference between morality and its appearance. A comic masterpiece, studded with humorous quips and clever paradoxes.

No, don't tell your wife
talking will just confuse her,
poor dumb lady brain.
This is arguably Wilde at his wittiest and most quotable, but the plot and characters seem thin in comparison. Ultimately, not his most memorable work.
