Synopsis
Oscar Wilde was Ireland's greatest and most inspired wit. This complete edition contains all his plays, his only novel, "The Picture of Dorian Gray," as well as his essays, poems and stories for children, "The Happy Prince and Other Tales," and his more worldly stories for adults, "Lord Arthur Savile's Crime and Other Stories." The juxtaposition of his "jeux d'esprits" such as "The Soul of Man under Socialism" and "The Portrait of Mr. W.H." contrast sharply with "The Ballad of Reading Gaol" and "De Profundis," while "Lady Windermere's Fan," "A Woman of No Importance," "An Ideal Husband" and "The Imporance of Being Earnest" still enchant readers and theatre audiences today.
