About the book

This three-volume collection brings together major works by Oscar Wilde, one of the most brilliant and distinctive writers of the late Victorian period. His writing ranges from witty social comedy and fairy tales to Gothic fiction, poetry and deeply personal prose. Across his work, Wilde combines elegance, paradox and satire while exploring beauty, hypocrisy, morality and individual freedom. Later reprints were issued in dark red cloth with a matching dark red slipcase featuring Wilde’s photograph on one side.
