Description

Mrs Arbuthnot’s secret and Lord Illingworth’s charm collide when their son Gerald stands between them. Society wit with a moral bruise. Spoken as Wilde when a woman’s past is the weapon men refuse to own.

Author

Oscar Wilde (1854–1900) was born in Dublin, took a double first at Magdalen College, Oxford, and made conversation a form of literature. The Picture of Dorian Gray is the one novel — beauty, bargain, and a portrait that keeps the score. The Importance of Being Earnest is the comedy in which nothing is earnest except the jokes. Prison and exile followed the trials. Style was an ethic. Scandal became a second plot.
