"Bunburying," as a category for books, refers to stories where characters engage in elaborate deceptions or adopt alternate identities to escape societal obligations, explore hidden desires, or experience life from a different perspective. Inspired by the term from Oscar Wilde's play "The Importance of Being Earnest," where characters create fictitious personas to avoid unwelcome duties, Bunburying books often blend humor, wit, and social commentary. These narratives typically involve intricate plots, clever disguises, and a playful examination of identity and societal norms, offering readers a delightful escape into worlds where the boundaries between reality and pretense are artfully blurred.

Plays are a category of literature that consists of written works intended for performance on stage. They typically feature dialogue between characters and are structured into acts and scenes. Plays can be comedic, tragic, or a combination of both, and often explore themes such as love, power, and morality. They are meant to be performed by actors in front of an audience, and can be enjoyed both as written works and as live performances.
