Tartuffe (Drama Classics) by Martin Sorrell (Adapter), published by Nick Hern Books on April 1, 2002, is a satirical play that critiques religious hypocrisy. Set in Molière’s era, Tartuffe, a pretended pious man, ingratiates himself into the household of Orgon, causing him to lose his senses with false piety. The character almost achieves his devious intentions, such as seducing Orgon’s wife and disowning his children, before being revealed for the fraud he is.
