The Wit and Humor of Oscar Wilde

Giv mig besked når bogen er tilgængelig

More than 1000 ripostes, paradoxes, and epigrams on sin, society, genius, wealth, men, women, religion, America, education, and smoking: &quote;Work is the curse of the drinking classes,&quote; &quote;I can resist everything except temptation,&quote; etcetera. Also excerpts from his trial testimony, where the tragedy implicit in Wilde's humor is nowhere more vivid.
