Synopsis A pivotal figure in nineteenth-century literature, Oscar Wilde was an energetic and multifaceted writer. His large and diverse body of work includes masterpieces of wit such as the plays "The Importance of Being Earnest" and "An Ideal Husband," The seminal novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, well-crafted short stories and fairy tales, critical essays that changed how the world looks at art and literature, impassioned poetry, and the moving confessional memoir "De Profundis." This literary omnibus gathers into a single volume all of Wilde's fiction, drama, poetry, and essays. Oscar Wilde: Collected Works is part of Barnes & Noble's Library of Essential Writers. Each title in the series presents the finest works - complete and unabridged - from one of the greatest writers in literature in magnificent, elegantly designed hard-back editions. Every volume also includes an original introduction that provides the reader with enlightening information on the writer's life and works. Biography The ever-quotable Oscar Wilde once said, "Anybody can make history. Only a great man can write it." From his outsize celebrity in Victorian London to his authorship of fiction, drama, and poetry that uniquely captured his era, it's fair to say that Wilde succeeded on both counts.
