St. John Hankin's play 'The Last of the De Mullins' is a comedic drama that satirizes the aristocratic society of late Victorian England. Through clever dialogue and witty exchanges, Hankin explores themes of social class, gender roles, and the decline of the British nobility. The play is characterized by its sharp observations of human behavior and its ability to entertain while also delivering thought-provoking commentary. Set against the backdrop of a decaying country estate, the narrative unfolds with a blend of humor and poignancy, making it a compelling read for fans of both comedy and drama. St. John Hankin, known for his sharp wit and keen insight into human nature, drew inspiration for this play from his own experiences in high society and his observations of the changing social landscape of his time. His background as a playwright and social critic shines through in 'The Last of the De Mullins', making it a significant contribution to the canon of Victorian theatrical literature. I highly recommend this play to readers interested in exploring the complexities of class and society in the late 19th century, as well as those looking for a well-crafted drama with a touch of humor.
