The Buntling Ball is a play written by Edgar Fawcett in 1885. It is a satirical commentary on the high society of New York City during that time period. The play is written in poetic form and incorporates elements of both Greek and American culture. The story revolves around a ball where the guests are all vying for the attention of a wealthy young woman named Miss Buntling. The characters are portrayed as shallow and materialistic, with their actions and words serving as a critique of the social norms of the time. The play is a humorous and witty portrayal of the excesses and superficiality of the upper classes, and it remains a classic example of satirical literature from the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
