by Oscar Wilde (Author)
This vintage book contains the "Poems" section of "The Complete Works of Oscar Wilde". Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (1854 - 1900) was a seminal Irish author, poet, and playwright. He was the most popular playwright in London in the 1890s, and is most famous for his witty epigrams and the novel "The Picture of Dorian Gray". This wonderful compendium is highly recommended for all lovers of poetry, and it would make for a worthy addition to any personal library. The poems of this collection include: "Hélas!", "Sonnet to Liberty", "To Milton", "Louis Napoleon", "Sonnet on the Massacre of the Christians in Bulgaria", "Quantum Mutata", "Libertatis Sacra Fames", "Theoretikos", "The Garden of Eros", "Rosa Mystica", "Sonnet on Approaching Italy", "San Miniato", etcetera. Many texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
