The Collected Poems of Oscar Wilde - Paperback

Elegant, intimate, and quietly devastating, The Collected Poems of Oscar Wilde reveals a side of Wilde often overshadowed by his legend. More than the wit or the scandal, this volume invites you into the inner life of a poet - tender, searching, and profoundly human. Spanning his early, deeply personal elegies to the powerful Ballad of Reading Gaol, Wilde’s verse moves through love and loss, faith and rebellion, beauty and exile. He writes of forbidden desire, ancient Greece, the theatre, and the city itself with impressionistic clarity and emotional depth. This Wordsworth Classics edition presents the full breadth of his poetic voice - romantic, fearless, and compassionate - a beautiful companion for those drawn to poetry that lingers long after the page is turned.
