The Sorcerer is a novel written by William S. Gilbert, published in 1898. The story revolves around a young man named Alexis, who is in love with a girl named Aline. However, Aline's father, Sir Marmaduke Pointdextre, is against the marriage as he believes that love should be based on reason rather than emotions. In order to prove his point, Sir Marmaduke hires a sorcerer named John Wellington Wells to cast a love potion on the entire village, causing everyone to fall in love with the first person they see. Chaos ensues as people fall in love with the wrong people, and Alexis must find a way to break the spell and win back Aline's love. The Sorcerer is a satirical take on Victorian society, poking fun at their obsession with reason and logic over emotion and passion. The novel is filled with witty dialogue, humorous situations, and Gilbert's trademark wordplay. It is a must-read for fans of classic literature and satire.THIS 24 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Works of Sir William Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan, by William S. Gilbert.
