Summary

Auden's famous couplet expresses the dilemma at the heart of the author's exploration of Oscar Wilde's relationship with Lord Alfred Douglas. This title speculates on two incidents in Wilde's life of which we know little, in order to present a play whose true subject is not Wilde, but love; not Bosie, but betrayal.
