OSCAR WILDE: His Life and Confessions.

Small bump to one corner. Touches rubbing here and there to cloth. Patch of soil bottom board Vol. 2. Minor spotting to page edges. Else bright and sound with gilt titles unusually bright. INSCRIBED, dated, and signed by author Harris on ffep of Vol. 1. Binding: Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Harris, close friend to Wilde even through his darkest days, produced this biography some twenty years after the writer's death. One of the earliest biographies of Wilde (indeed, by my count, only the second), and the first to portray Wilde in a positive light, it remains an important source - even if Harris tends to exaggerate his own importance in the narrative. With the Shaw introduction, first thus. Quantity available: 1. Price: US$450.00 |
