The fall of the house of Wilde : Oscar Wilde and his family
O'Sullivan, Emer2016
Books
'The Fall of the House of Wilde' for the first time places Oscar Wilde as a member of one of the most dazzling Anglo-Irish families of Victorian times, and also in the broader social, political and religious context. A remarkable and perceptive account, this is a major repositioning of our first modern celebrity, a man whose own fall from grace in a trial as public as his father's marked the end of fin de siecle decadence.
