Summary

Did you know that Oscar Wilde was said to have had a photographic memory? Or that his father was eye surgeon to none other than Queen Victoria herself? How did his homosexuality come to the attention of the police? And why was a glass barrier erected in front of his tomb?

In this fascinating audiobook, Jason Zenobia talks us through over 100 facts about the poet, playwright and popular society figure. Loved by many not just in his lifetime but still today, the story of Oscar Wilde is as entrancing as it is tragic, and this audiobook is a rewarding introduction into his world.
