Review
`wholly admirable...sets one thinking hard about what is of most value and what of less in Wilde's work`
Durham University Journal
`The hallmark of this superb series is that it achieves the highest possible standards of selection of world literature, many with the finest translations to English, coupled with quality presentation...The bonus is that since they are in paperback, what can arguably be said to be the best
books ever written are available at bargain prices.' Edinburgh Evening News
`The World's Classics series is one of the best collections in a high quality field.' Edinburgh Evening News
`the excellent Oxford World's Classics series' Val Hennessy, Daily Mail
`The Oxford Classics continue to be great value.' John Banville, Irish Times
`bound to please many readers wanting a change from the diet of modern fiction which so often falls into predictable categories.' Edinburgh Evening News
`elegant reminders of the breadth of his talent'
Edinburgh Evening News
`A very useful collection, nicely presented.'
Dr S. Foster, University of Sheffield
