A selection of writings from the pen of one of the wittiest men who ever lived.

The collection ends with some of wilde's critical essays. The mark of a great writer is his relevance to subsequent generations of readers. Oscar wilde is probably more popular now than he was in his lifetime and this compilation is the perfect introduction to his genius.
