Another Moliere classic. The Wilbur translation even maintains the rhyming couplets in English, which makes it a quick read and hilarious to boot. Take an hour and read it.

// "m. loyal: may heaven bless you all!
orgon: may it curse you and the one who sent you!"
a rather wonderful and humorous satirical play on religious fanaticism and the lengths that religion can be used to cause consequences for the innocent

Another one told in rhymes but I must admit that here I didn't mind and it was easy to read. It had a really interesting premise, I liked the idea and the characters were realistically written. So in short, I very much enjoyed it. The thing that very much bothered me was that Molière used the same names as in The Miser and it is so confusing, especially if in one play those two characters are siblings and now they are in love.
