Nine Books In One! In one volume, a new beautifully laid-out edition of nine of Oscar Wilde's most famous and influential works, drawn from his novels, short story collections, plays, and poems. Included in this volume Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) was an Irish playwright, novelist, poet, and wit. He was one of the most prominent figures of the late Victorian era and a leading light of the Aesthetic Movement. Wilde is best known for his plays “The Importance of Being Earnest” and “An Ideal Husband”, as well as his novel “The Picture of Dorian Gray”. His work was heavily influenced by his Irish background, as well as his love of the theater. His witticisms and epigrams are still widely quoted today. Wilde was also an outspoken critic of Victorian morality, often challenging the conventions of the day. His personal life was also the subject of much controversy and he was imprisoned for two years for “gross indecency”. Wilde’s life and work have inspired generations of writers, artists, and thinkers. He is still regarded as one of the most influential writers in English literature.
