Description
In his introduction Gyles Brandreth says "There are no known recordings of Oscar Wilde speaking, but you can hear his voice very clearly in the pages that follow. These essays illustrate his remarkable way with words and reveal both a range of his opinions on things that mattered to him and a flavour of his ‘philosophy’ of art – and life.
If you are looking for the company of Oscar Wilde ‘on song’ you are in for a treat."
