Lady Windermere’s Fan is a clever play that pokes fun at English society. I am a little embarrassed to admit that I did not know how many iconic Wilde quotations came from this piece. My favorite is “In this world there are only two tragedies. One is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it”. I would love to read more plays written by Wilde soon!
