Argan is a hypochondriac who spends his days in bed, at the mercy of prescriptions from doctors more interested in charging than curing him.

Edition recommended for ages 12 and up, designed to bring classical theatre to young readers.
Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, known by his stage name Molière, was a French playwright, actor, and poet, widely regarded as one of the great writers in the French language and world literature. His extant works include comedies, farces, tragicomedies, comédie-ballets, and more. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed at the Comédie-Française more often than those of any other playwright today. His influence is such that the French language is often referred to as the "language of Molière".
