Издание с односторонним золотым обрезом и ляссе. Playwright, novelist, essayist, poet and epigrammatist, Oscar Wilde was Ireland's greatest and most inspired wit. Renowned equally for his espousal of aestheticism and art for art's sake, he became notorious for his affair with Lord Alfred Douglas. Today, he is remembered for the brilliance of his writing, and this complete edition of his works contains all his plays, his only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, as well as his essays, poems and stories for children, The Happy Prince and Other Tales., and his more worldly stories for adults, Lord Arthur Savile's Crime & Other Stories. The juxtaposition of hisjeux d'esprits such щ-The Soul of the Man Under Socialism and The Portrait of Mr. W.H. contrast sharply with The Ballad of Reading Gaol and De Profundis, while Lady Windermere's Fan, A Woman of No Importance, An Ideal Husband and The Importance of Being Earnest still enchant readers and theatre audiences today.

Sherlock Holmes is the greatest fictional detective in the world.

Illustrated by Sidney Paget, who prepared these inspired black-and-white drawings for the original publication in The Strand Magazine, and his successors on the magazine.

This collection of Poe's work contains some of the most exciting and haunting tales ever written. They range from the poetic to the mysterious and the darkly comic, yet all possess the genius of the grotesque that defines Poe's writing. The stories are so alive with compelling mysteries, vibrant images and unforgettably tormented characters, that it is easy to associate Edgar Allan Poe solely with entertainment and forget that he was also one of the greatest innovators in modern literature. This volume contains all of Poe's "Tales of mystery and imagination" and "Tales of the grotesque and arabesque", and a selection of his poetry. The book is illustrated by several artists, including Aubrey Beardsley, Gustave Dore and Harry Clarke.
