Query: very funny

i know this book is supposed to be a satire of the british gentry, but that was a hundred years ago and those people are dead. so what's left is a very witty play about some very funny (dead) people. some wag called "the imp of being earnest" a "verbal opera". this description is apt. read the book and find out why...
