The Plays of Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde - 2000, Wordsworth Classics

Overview

Oscar Wilde captivated London with his early comedy, "Lady Windermere's Fan."

This success continued with "A Woman of No Importance," "An Ideal Husband," and his celebrated masterpiece, "The Importance of Being Earnest." This volume presents Wilde's complete dramatic works, from the early tragedy "Vera" and the controversial "Salome" to lesser-known fragments like "La Sainte Courtisane" and "A Florentine Tragedy." It offers a unique opportunity to view his most famous plays alongside his entire theatrical output, highlighting works that have often been overlooked by critics.
