That rare thing: a Wildean book that is at once new, necessary, and beautiful.


Matthew Sturgis

Author: Oscar Wilde: A Life
(Alfred A. Knopf)

Beautiful & brilliant–the only book about Wilde I can imagine Wilde himself wanting to own.


Rob Marland

Editor: Oscar Wilde: The Complete Interviews  (Little Eye)

The serious, the thoughtful Oscar Wilde is all too often hidden behind his trademark wit and humour, but his multiple reflections on 'Dress', here brilliantly assembled and edited by John Cooper, now rectify some of that imbalance in his reputation. A must-read for all committed Wildeans.
