Description
Oscar Wilde's life was deeply intertwined with the women who shaped his thoughts, relationships, and creative output. This fascinating book reframes Wilde's story, exploring the pivotal roles of women in his life, including his extraordinary mother, his accomplished wife, and a coterie of free-thinking writers, actors, and artists. Through their stories, Wilde's Women sheds light on the writer's advocacy for gender equality and his use of social comedies to express the ideas of his female friends and colleagues.
