About the Book

Wilde's only novel, first published in 1890, is a brilliantly designed puzzle, intended to tease conventional minds with its exploration of the myriad interrelationships between art, life, and consequence.

Condition

A good reading copy. The title page and first few pages of text are heavily foxed, lessening as you go through the book. Page edges and margins tanned and foxed. Corners a little bumped but the whole remaining in good, readable condition.
