Description
This illustrated biography tells the life of Oscar Wilde through his own words – private letters, poems, plays, stories and legendary witticisms. It includes his relationships with key artists and writers of the time, including John Ruskin, Charles Ricketts, and Lillie Langtry. The book details Wilde's ruin after his infamous trial for indecency. The profundity of his writing forms an epitaph, not only to his own life, but also for the era that carelessly delighted in it.
