Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Love for Love: A Comedy by William Congreve" is a Restoration comedy written in 1695. Valentine, a young man drowning in debt, signs away his inheritance to escape his creditors and win his father's help. But when he realizes his mistake, he must resort to desperate measures—even feigning madness—to avoid losing everything. Meanwhile, the wealthy Angelica holds the key to his fate, though her true intentions remain unclear until the final moment.
