Too Clever By Half

Work:: Too Clever By Half (S5319)

The Glumov family has fallen on hard times but by wit, cunning and flattery Yegor soon worms his way into the influential society of the newly rich. A satirical comedy. But the secrets they tell him end up in his diary, and his diary has been found!
