Written in the late 1800's, " An Ideal Husband " and " A Woman of No Importance " are peppered with the unmistakable wit and satire that made Oscar Wilde one of the most famous literary figures of his era. Now available together for the first time in this unique Signet Classic edition, both plays-centered on characters hiding terrible, scandalous secrets-offer dark foreshadowing of the dramatic course Wilde's own life was to take.
