This is the only available edition of a brilliant novel by the
leading Restoration dramatist and author of The Way of the World.
Masked balls, mistaken identity, and fanciful deceits run riot in
this hilarious tale of love and intrigue by the master of the
Restoration comedy. Returning to Florence on the occasion of his
eighteenth birthday, Aurelian - together with his sworn companion
Hippolito - dons his disguise in anticipation of the famous
Florentine ball. Once there, the two are soon separated, and each
finds himself paired off with a beautiful - and masked - woman.
Whilst Aurelian yearns to learn the true identity of his 'love',
Hippolito is mistaken for another and brazenly plays along with the
conceit. Chaos abounds as masks are dropped, truth revealed, and,
somehow, all ends happily.
