Illuminating essays on philsophy, literature, soceity, and art by one of Ireland's greatest wits

Oscar Wilde--witty raconteur, flamboyant hedonist, and self-destructive lover--is most familiar as the author of brilliant comedies, including The Importance of Being Earnest, An Ideal Husband, and the decadent novel The Picture of Dorian Gray. This selection of critical writings reveals a different side of the great writer--the deep and serious reader of literature and philosophy, and the eloquent and original thinker about society and art. This illuminating collection includes The Portrait of Mr. W. H., In Defense of Dorian Gray, reviews, and the writings from Intentions (1891), including The Decay of Lying, Pen, Pencil, Poison, and The Critic as Artist.

For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
