Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) was an Irish writer and poet who distinguished himself as a leader of London's school of Aesthetics in the late nineteenth century. He became famous for his long hair, flamboyant dress, green carnations and colorful, biting wit. His successful novels, social comedies, poetry and letters reflected his belief in the supremacy of art. In 1895, Wilde was convicted of gross indecency in a legal suit from the father of his lover, Lord Alfred Douglas. He was imprisoned for two years, serving hard labor, during which time he wrote "De Profundis" a letter to Douglas discussing their relationship and the spiritual journey that Wilde had undergone in prison. The eighty page manuscript begins by examining Lord Alfred's behavior and negative influence on Wilde during their three-year relationship; the second part of the letter describes the harsh conditions of prison and the physical and emotional toll it took on the writer. He finishes the letter with a Christian analogy of himself as a symbol of art and truth.

看了一下確實似乎是刪節版,已經退貨,而且Amazon上的Wordsworth Editions Ltd.版本只比它貴出0.04刀卻還包括了The Ballad of Reading Gaol and Other Writings。這書唯一優點就是奇薄無比,建議還是購買完整版本。
评分Wilde的作品总是让人一开始阅读就难以停止的读下去,恨不得坐在那里一气读完
