From its provocative Preface, challenging the reader to believe in 'art for art's sake', to its sensational conclusion, the story self-consciously experiments with the notion of sin as an element of design. Yet Wilde himself underestimated the consequences of his experiment, and its capacity to outrage the Victorian establishment. Its words returned to haunt him in his court appearances in 1895, and he later recalled the 'note of doom' which runs like 'a purple thread' through its carefully crafted prose.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 178mmItem Length: 129mmItem Width: 20mmItem Weight: 264gGenre: FictionBook Series: Wordsworth Collector's EditionsTopic: Classic FictionAuthor: Oscar WildeRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
