Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"All's Well That Ends Well" by William Shakespeare is a comedy published in 1623. Helena, a low-born physician's daughter, loves Bertram, a nobleman who scorns her. When she cures the King of France, she's granted Bertram as her husband, but he refuses to accept her. He sets impossible conditions: only when she carries his child and obtains his ring will he truly wed her. Through cunning and devotion, Helena pursues these tasks, but can she win an unwilling husband's heart?
