About the book

William Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor is a comedy in which Sir John Falstaff attempts to court two prosperous married women, Mistress Ford and Mistress Page, hoping to improve his finances.

Set in an English middle-class community, the play combines farce, jealousy, disguise and practical jokes with a lively portrait of domestic life.
