The Miser by MOLIÈRE (1622 - 1673), translated by Charles Heron WALL (1836 - 1905) Genre(s): Comedy Read by: in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 01 - Act 1 00:32:19 - 02 - Act 2 00:59:38 - 03 - Act 3 01:24:07 - 04 - Act 4 01:42:05 - 05 - Act 5 The Miser is a comedy of manners about a rich moneylender named Harpagon. His feisty children long to escape from his penny-pinching household and marry their respective lovers. Although the 17th-century French upper classes presumably objected to the play’s message, it is less savage and somewhat less realistic than Molière’s earlier play, Tartuffe, which attracted a storm of criticism on its first performance.
