Caesar's Wife is a three-act comedy play written by W. Somerset Maugham and first published in 1922. The play revolves around the character of Julia, the wife of a wealthy banker named Caesar. Julia is a strong-willed and independent woman who is determined to live life on her own terms, despite the expectations of society and her husband. She becomes embroiled in a scandal when she is caught in a compromising position with a young artist, and her reputation is threatened. As the play unfolds, Julia must navigate the complexities of her relationships with her husband, her lover, and the society that judges her. The play is a witty and satirical commentary on the hypocrisy and double standards of the upper class, and explores themes of love, marriage, and the role of women in society. Maugham's sharp writing and clever dialogue make Caesar's Wife an entertaining and thought-provoking read.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
