Comedy with a bitter kernel

The Misanthrope described the author of his own dilemma, which is still valid today: whether to continue to stay at the court in Paris, full of tedious intrigues and hypocrisy, but a decent Gazi alongside beloved wife, or whether it would be better to abandon all worldly glory, escape from the influence of fickle favor of his royal "boss" and retire ...
The result is a reflection of Moliére text, which is still one of the gems of world drama. The main character, Alcest, belongs to the high society of the royal court, where he lives badly.
