Synopsis: |
A flamboyant man of exuberant and sparkling wit - the master of epigram, aphorism, anecdote and paradox - Oscar Wilde delighted in outraging Victorian social and sexual conventions. Wilde is one of the most quotable of authors, as this collection of extracts from his prose and poetic works clearly demonstrates. It also illustrates the full range of interest, from the delightfully comic to the profoundly serious, of this supremely talented but ultimately tragic figure. |
