книга "Oscar Wilde: The complete works" — Уальд ОскарOscar Wilde: The complete works. Один из самых известных драматургов позднего Викторианского периода. Лондонский денди, позднее несправедливо осуждённый за «непристойное поведение» (гомосексуальные связи) и после двух лет тюрьмы и исправительных работ уехавший во Францию, где жил в нищете и забвении под другим именем. Известен своими пьесами, полными парадоксов и афоризмов.
Playwright, novelist, essayist, poet and epigrammatist, Oscar Wilde was Ireland's greatest and most inspired wit. Today he is remembered for the brilliance of his writing, and this complete edition of his works contains all his plays, his only novel, The Portrait 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. Illustrated by Aubrey Beardsley, illustrator, caricaturist, poster-designer and novelist, and Charles Robinson, one of the most popular black-and-white artists of the Edwardian era. |
