Description

Oscar Wilde's The Soul of Man Under Socialism and Selected Critical Prose offers a unique glimpse into the mind of one of Ireland's greatest wits. This collection of essays reveals a deeper side to the author, one that explores literature, philosophy, and society with wit and eloquence. Wilde's writings on art and literature are as insightful as they are provocative, offering a fascinating perspective on the world of his time. This selection includes some of his most notable works, such as "The Portrait of Mr. W. H." and "In Defense of Dorian Gray," as well as reviews and writings from his influential book Intentions. Published by National Geographic Books, this Penguin Classics edition provides authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors.
