A Woman of No Importance

Más información sobre el libro

Set in the opulent world of the English upper class, the play opens at a party hosted by Lady Hunstanton, where guests engage in idle gossip and social maneuvering. Central to the plot is Gerald Arbuthnot, who is excited about being taken under the wing of the flirtatious Lord Illingworth, a powerful political figure. As the characters navigate their relationships, themes of ambition, morality, and the roles of women in society emerge, particularly through the interactions between the American visitor Hester Worsley and the established elite.
