Àííîòàöèÿ: The portrait which Basil Hallward painted of Dorian Gray revealed the face of an Adonis, and when he saw the finished picture of himself, the beautiful young aethete exclaimed: "Why should it keep what i must lose? Every moment that passes takes something from me, and gives something to it. Oh, if it were only the other way! If the picture could change, and i could be always what i am now!" His perverse aspiration was strangely fulfilled. Abandoning himself to every sin which his profligate mind could devise, the wealthy and exquisite young man brought misery and disgrace on all who accepted his companionship, but Dorian Gray still wore the outward appearance of serene beauty. It was upon the portrait, locked away in his attic, that the marks of degeneration mysteriously appeared, for the painting of Adonis slowly transformed into the likeness of a satyr.

Àííîòàöèÿ: These eight high-spirited stories were written at the height of Oscar Wilde's creative power, between 1887 and 1981, when he delighted polite society with the epigram and controversy which flowed from his pen. Lord Arthur Savile's Crime is a masterpiece of polished cynicism, in which poison, explosive clocks and finally murder forerun married bliss; and The Canterville Ghost is a venerable - and resourceful - family spook throughly unhorsed by his new American owners. Two of Wilde's best-loved stories for children are also included, together with The portrait of Mr W.H., a masterly example of scholary detection, and three rare pieces by the man for whom, above all, there was 'no Mystery so great as Misery'.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Oscar Wilde's infamous wit, taste for scandal, and gift for revealing the hypocrisies of fashionable society are on display in this collection of his finest plays. A genius ahead of his time, his focused on the eternal questions of right and wrong-with pithy dialogue as fresh today as when it was first performed.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Some famous stories by Oscar Wilde, magnificently illustrated by Charles Robinson in balck and white and in full colour.

Àííîòàöèÿ: The Ballad of Reading Gaol is a heartfelt cry against Man's inhumanity to Man. The legal violence of the hangman's rope, the denial of everything to the condemned expect death, the coldness and terror as the final unspoken act takes place. The starkness of Masereel's woodcuts add a sad and lonely dimension to this famous poem.

Àííîòàöèÿ: The novel tells of a young man named Dorian Gray, the subject of a painting by artist Basil Hallward. Basil is impressed by Dorian's beauty and becomes infatuated with him, believing his beauty is responsible for a new mode in his art. Talking in Basil's garden, Dorian meets Lord Henry Wotton, a friend of Basil's, and becomes enthralled by Lord Henry's world view. Espousing a new hedonism, Lord Henry suggests the only things worth pursuing in life are beauty and fulfilment of the senses. Realising that one day his beauty will fade,

Àííîòàöèÿ: Here is Oscar Wilde's most brilliant tour de force, a witty and buoyant comedy of manners that has delighted millions in countless productions since its first performance in London's St. James' Theatre on February 14, 1985. The Importance of Being Earnest is celebrated not only for the lighthearted in genuity of its plot, but for its inspired dialoge, rich with scintillating epigrams still savored by all who enjoy artful conversation. From the play's effervescent beginnings in Algernon Moncrieff's London flat to its hilarious denouement in the drawing room of Jack Worthing's country manor in Hertfordshire, this comic masterpiece keeps audience breathlessly anticipating a new bon mot or a fresh twist of plot moment to moment.

Àííîòàöèÿ: This is a story of moral corruption. A gothic melodrama, it is full of subtle impression and epigram. It touches on many of Wilde's recurring themes, such as the nature and spirit of art, aestheticism and the dangers inherent in it.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (1854-1900) was the son of Sir William Wilde, a noted Dublin eye specialist, and Jane Francesca, Lady Wilde, a well-known Irish poet and journalist. He was a bril...
