"Cecily Cardew and Gwendolen Fairfax are both in love with the same mythical suitor. Jack Worthing has wooed Gwendolen as Earnest, while Algernon has also posed as Earnest to win the heart of Jack's ward, Cecily. When all four arrive at Jack's country home on the same weekend--the "rivals" to fight for Earnest's undivided attention and the "Earnests" to claim their beloveds--pandemonium breaks loose"--Page 4 of cover.

Review of 'The Importance of Being Earnest' on 'Goodreads'

Not a highly entertaining read, although there are a few humorous parts. Because this is a script for a play, the reading is quite a bit different from that of a novel. It also is worth noting that the copy I downloaded from Standard eBooks had a few formatting difficulties.
