A Woman of No Importance (with audio‪)‬

Enhanced ebook edition of A Woman of No Importance featuring a full cast audio performance of the play.

Devilishly attractive Lord Illingworth is notorious for his skill as a seducer. But he is still invited to all the “best” houses while his female

conquests must hide their shame in seclusion. In this devastating comedy, Wilde uses his celebrated wit to expose English society’s narrow view

of everything from sexual mores to Americans.

The ebook also features an interview Merlin Holland, Oscar Wilde’s only grandchild, and author of The Real Trial of Oscar Wilde.

By merging text and audio, this is a perfect learning tool for enhancing comprehension and enjoyment. The text includes plot summaries of

each scene, and it is highly recommended as a study aid for students, teachers, actors and directors.
