This new selection of essays by Oscar Wilde show-cases the varied aspects of his genius.

Beautiful and Impossible Things: Selected Essays of Oscar Wilde Bewertungen

First, it is an elegant linen-bound production that gives it a handsome feel in the hand, but then fits neatly into a pocket like something one should never travel without on the train. Moreover, it is purple-one of Wilde's statement colors-which as a cover for Wilde's sparkling prose renders it heliotrope with diamonds...it is a book that should always be with us when there are no flowers to look at and we want something to stir the intelligence. -John Cooper, Oscar Wilde in America (blog)

The release of this lovely volume from Notting Hill Editions is a timely reminder that Oscar Wilde was more than just a wit, spouting aphorisms and ending up the subject of scandal and imprisonment. -Shiny New Books
