Jack is in pursuit of Algernon's cousin Gwendolen, while Algy pursues Jack's ward Cecily. Unknown to the women, both men lead double lives of deception and story-telling, but the truth which emerges at the end of the play is more surprising than any lies either of them could think up.

Description
This is an offset facsimile of the first printing published in 1899 in London by Leonard Smithers. According to his biographer, Richard Ellmann, Oscar Wilde worked on the design of this text himself.
The Orchises facsimile is printed on Ph balanced paper and is bound in full cloth in sewn signatures; although slightly reduced from the original in size, in most crucial respects it duplicates the original edition.
