Wilde's only novel, first published in 1890, is a brilliantly designed puzzle, intended to tease conventional minds with its exploration of the myriad interrelationships between art, life, and consequence.
Condition
A good reading copy. The spine is foxed and the corners are bumped and rubbed. There is the odd spot of light foxing to the pages but otherwise this remains a worn copy but in strong readable condition.
