Description
'This volume brings together five of Moliere''s finest and best-known plays. The three verse plays, The Misanthrope, Tartuffe and The School for Wives, have been skilfully turned into sparkling English couplets by Richard Wilbur''s ''brilliant rhymed translation'' Sunday Telegraph; while the playwright Alan Drury has translated the two prose comedies, The Miser and The Hypochondriac (''a cherubically funny translation'' Independent).'
