Moliere - Five Plays - The Misanthrope & Tartuffe & The School for Wives & The Miser & The Hypochondriac
~ Jean Baptiste Moliere
This volume brings together critically acclaimed modern translations of five of Molière'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 - which The Independent described as "A cherubically funny translation"
