'Oscar Wilde Calendar' Summary
The 'Oscar Wilde Calendar' is a curated collection of Oscar Wilde's witticisms, presented in a calendar format. Each day of the year features a different quote or epigram, offering readers a glimpse into Wilde's unique perspective on life, love, and society. While some quotations are well-known, others are less familiar, including unpublished remarks supplied by Wilde's friends. The book's editor, Stuart Mason, a renowned Wildean scholar, ensured the accuracy and authenticity of each entry. The 'Oscar Wilde Calendar' is not only a source of entertaining and thought-provoking sayings but also provides a unique window into Wilde's mind and his enduring legacy as a literary and cultural icon. The book invites readers to ponder Wilde's observations on various aspects of life, including art, morality, and social customs, with a sense of humor and intellectual depth that remains relevant even today.Book Details
