WOW! The condition is incredible for the price I paid - I thank the seller for accepting my offer as I'm poor and need all the help I can get in obtaining the more expensive otogizoshi & other medieval & ancient Japanese Literature that I'm looking for, so this seller really was generous with the price and I thank them from the bottom of my heart. Packaged super safe, really fast shipping, and the book is like new, so much better than the Ad's description! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SELLER FOR SURE!!

    Beneath every exciting tale of Wilde lies dying woe...

    This book is for anyone having a desire to discover the roots of Oscar Wilde's personality, struggles and rebellion and perhaps how he chose the topics and characters he created. Although the content of the book assumes that the general reader has mastery of Wilde's works as well as familiarity with the jargon of psychoanalytical contexts and late to mid ninteenth century English connotations, it's infomative and factually based. The author's proposed reasons for Wilde's flambouyant nature, his mental state when composing his classic works and the similarity between Wilde and some of his fictitious characters are complex and reflect the author's diligence in peeling the taboo layers from the infamous Wilde. The photographs printed in the book depict not only portraits of Wilde but of his ...
