The Complete All’s Well That Ends Well

About the Book

The plot of All’s Well That Ends Well is illustrated by what one character says (III.66), “The web of our life is a tangled yarn.” Through all of the twists and machinations, justice triumphs, and loyalty is rewarded. The play is challenging, however, because of the somewhat inconsistent direction; it has been called a problem play. As Bevington states, “The web of human life remains a mingled yarn” (148).
