A collected edition bringing together Oscar Wilde's principal works across drama, fiction, poetry, and prose, presenting a comprehensive view of his literary career.
This volume includes The Importance of Being Earnest, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Salome, The Happy Prince and Other Tales, The Canterville Ghost, The Soul of Man Under Socialism, and a selection of Wilde's poetry. Written across the final decades of the nineteenth century, these works reflect Wilde's distinctive combination of wit, aesthetic sensibility, and critical engagement with the social conventions of his time.
From the precision of his dramatic dialogue to the philosophical and symbolic elements of his prose and fiction, Wilde's writing demonstrates a consistent concern with art, individuality, and the tensions between appearance and reality. Taken together, these works offer a representative account of one of the most recognisable voices in English literature, whose influence extends across both literary and theatrical traditions.
