Double Falsehood or The Distressed Lovers is a play that was first published in 1728, and is attributed to William Shakespeare and John Fletcher. The play is believed to be a revised version of a lost play by Shakespeare and Fletcher called Cardenio. The plot of the play revolves around two lovers, Julio and Leonora, who are separated by the machinations of Leonora's father, Roderick. Julio is falsely accused of a crime and banished, while Leonora is forced to marry the villainous Henriquez. Julio returns in disguise and attempts to win back Leonora's love and expose Roderick's treachery. The play is a classic tale of love, betrayal, and redemption, and features many of the themes and motifs that are common in Shakespeare's works. Despite some controversy over its authorship, Double Falsehood remains a fascinating and entertaining play that is well worth reading.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
