About this book
"Tartuffe; Or, The Hypocrite" by Molière is a theatrical comedy first performed in 1664. When Orgon falls under the spell of Tartuffe, a cunning fraud posing as a holy man, his family watches in horror as their household unravels.

The play sparked immediate controversy for its portrayal of religious hypocrisy, leading King Louis XIV to suppress it despite its popularity.
