Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All%27s_Well_That_Ends_Well "All's Well That Ends Well" by William Shakespeare is a play written in the early 17th century, during the English Renaissance. It centers on the themes of love, desire, and societal expectations, mainly exploring the complex relationship between Helena, a determined young woman of humble origins, and Bertram, a count who initially spurns her affections. The opening of the play introduces characters mourning the recent loss of a husband while discussing their troubled King, who suffers from a malady. Among these characters is Helena, who is revealed to have a deep love for Bertram, despite the obstacles presented by their differing social statuses. As she reflects on her unfulfilled love, she resolves to seek the King’s health to win Bertram's heart. The beginning sets the stage for Helena’s quest to cure the King with the knowledge she inherited from her late father, which intertwines with her hopes of winning Bertram's love, establishing the foundational conflict of the narrative.
