The Prude's Progress is a comedic play in three acts written by Jerome Klapka Jerome and first published in 1895. The play follows the story of a young woman named Miss Prue Primrose, who is a self-proclaimed prude and a staunch advocate for morality and virtue. However, her views are challenged when she falls in love with a charming but somewhat unscrupulous man named Mr. Harry Spreadbrow.As the play progresses, Miss Primrose finds herself torn between her desire for Mr. Spreadbrow and her commitment to her principles. She seeks advice from her friends and family, but they are unable to offer any guidance that satisfies her. Eventually, she decides to take matters into her own hands and confront Mr. Spreadbrow directly.The Prude's Progress is a witty and satirical play that pokes fun at Victorian-era notions of morality and propriety. It explores themes of love, duty, and personal integrity, and offers a commentary on the social norms and conventions of the time. The play is still widely read and performed today, and is considered a classic of English comedic literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
