Book excerpt: Then suddenly the tune went false, The dancers wearied of the waltz, The shadows ceased to wheel and whirl. And down the long and silent street The dawn with silver-sandalled feet, Crept like a frightened girl. The life and works of Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) have a perennial fascination for the theatre going and reading public, and it is surprising that no separate edition of the poetry has been published for decades. Malcolm Hicks provides a generous and timely selection, introduction and notes. Here is the brilliant twenty-six-year-old`s only collection of poems, which displays his sensuousness and technical precocity, with deft echoes of earlier masters. The young Wilde explores styles and forms to counteract what seemed to him the exhaustion of the poetic language current at the time. The substantial works of his later maturity-including `The Harlot`s House`, The Sphinx and the legendary Ballad of Reading Gao-are also included.

Book excerpt: HE did not wear his scarlet coat, For blood and wine are red, And blood and wine were on his handsWhen they found him with the dead, The poor dead woman whom he loved, And murdered in her bed.He walked amongst the Trial MenIn a suit of shabby grey;A cricket cap was on his head, And his step seemed light and gay;But I never saw a man who lookedSo wistfully at the day.I never saw a man who lookedWith such a wistful eyeUpon that little tent of blueWhich prisoners call the sky, And at every drifting cloud that wentWith sails of silver by.I walked, with other souls in pain, Within another ring, And was wondering if the man had doneA great or little thing, When a voice behind me whispered low, 'That fellow's got to swing.'Dear Christ! the very prison wallsSuddenly seemed to reel, And the sky above my head becameLike a casque of scorching steel;And, though I was a soul in pain, My pain I could not feel.I only knew what hunted thoughtQuickened his step, and whyHe looked upon the garish dayWith such a wistful eye;3The man had killed the thing he loved, And so he had to die.Yet each man kills the thing he loves, By each let this be heard, Some do it with a bitter look, Some with a flattering word, The coward does it with a kiss, The brave man with a sword!Some kill their love when they are young, And some when they are old;Some strangle with the hands of Lust, Some with the hands of Gold: The kindest use a knife, becauseThe dead so soon grow cold.Some love too little, some too long, Some sell, and others buy;Some do the deed with many tears, And some without a sigh: For each man kills the thing he loves, Yet each man does not die.He does not die a death of shameOn a day of dark disgrace, Nor have a noose about his neck, Nor a cloth upon his face, Nor drop feet foremost through the floorInto an empty space.He does not sit with silent menWho watch him night and day;Who watch him when he tries to weep, And when he tries to pray;Who watch him lest himself shou

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oscar Wilde: one of the most celebrated literary artists in history. He stoked the fires of his fame with his sensational wit and flamboyant eccentricity. During a time of strict Victorian social norms he flaunted the most outrageous dandy attire--and if that wasn't enough, while studying at Oxford he walked through the streets with a lobster on a leash. Reputation aside Oscar Wilde was an incredible artist: his plays and his one novel stand out against time as utterly brilliant, relevant, and funny. Here we offer the Selected Poems of Oscar Wilde, a collection that highlights his range as a master of the classics when he read at Oxford-where he graduated with the highest honors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (16 October 1854 - 30 November 1900) was an Irish poet and playwright. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s. He is best remembered for his epigrams and plays, his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, and the circumstances of his criminal conviction for "gross indecency", imprisonment, and early death at age 46. Wilde's parents were successful Anglo-Irish intellectuals in Dublin. Their son became fluent in French and German early in life. At university, Wilde read Greats; he proved himself to be an outstanding classicist, first at Trinity College Dublin, then at Oxford. He became known for his involvement in the rising philosophy of aestheticism, led by two of his tutors, Walter Pater and John Ruskin. After university, Wilde moved to London into fashionable cultural and social circles. As a spokesman for aestheticism, he tried his hand at various literary activities: he published a book of poems, lectured in the United States and Canada on the new "English Renaissance in Art" and interior decoration, and then returned to London where he worked prolifically as a journalist. Known for his biting wit, flamboyant dress and glittering conversational skill, Wilde became one of the best-known personalities of his day. At the turn of the 1890s, he refined his ideas about the supremacy of art in a series of dialogues and essays, and incorporated themes of decadence, duplicity, and beauty into what would be his only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890). The opportunity to construct aesthetic details precisely, and combine them with larger social themes, drew Wilde to write drama. He wrote Salome (1891) in French while in Paris but it was refused a licence for England due to an absolute prohibition on the portrayal of Biblical subjects on the English stage. Unperturbed, Wilde produced four society comedies in the early 1890s, which made him one of the most successful playwrights of late-Victorian London. At the height of his fame and success, while The Importance of Being Earnest (1895) was still being performed in London, Wilde had the Marquess of Queensberry prosecuted for criminal libel. The Marquess was the father of Wilde's lover, Lord Alfred Douglas. The libel trial unearthed evidence that caused Wilde to drop his charges and led to his own arrest and trial for gross indecency with men. After two more trials he was convicted and sentenced to two years' hard labour, the maximum penalty, and was jailed from 1895 to 1897. During his last year in prison, he wrote De Profundis (published posthumously in 1905), a long letter which discusses his spiritual journey through his trials, forming a dark counterpoint to his earlier philosophy of pleasure. On his release, he left immediately for France, never to return to Ireland or Britain. There he wrote his last work, The Ballad of Reading Gaol (1898), a long poem commemorating the harsh rhythms of prison life.
