Description

Teleny, Or, The Reverse of the Medal by Oscar Wilde is a provocative and unflinching exploration of love and societal expectations in Victorian England. This homoerotic novel challenges the conventional norms of its time, presenting a powerful critique of the double moral standards that governed the era. Published in 1893, Teleny was praised for its frank and unapologetic portrayal of same-sex desire, earning it recognition as one of the most significant works of erotic romance in the English language. This edition, published by Mondial, offers a rare opportunity to experience Wilde's groundbreaking novel in paperback. With its unflinching examination of love and repression, Teleny remains a thought-provoking and unsettling read, offering a fascinating glimpse into the complexities of Victorian society.
