    About this ebook

    In The Follies of a Day, readers follow the comical drama of the Count, the Countess, Figaro, Bartholo, and Basilio in the second installment of 3 plays. Following The Barber of Seville, Figaro is a devious schemer, but in terms of plot, his own plans fail and confound him every time.
