I was advised on all hands not to write this book, and some Englishfriends who have read it urge me not to publish it. "You will be accused of selecting the subject," they say, "becausesexual viciousness appeals to you, and your method of treatment laysyou open to attack. "You criticise and condemn the English conception of justice, andEnglish lega...
On the 12th of December, 1864, Dublin society was abuzz withexcitement. A tidbit of scandal which had long been rolled on thetongue in semi-privacy was to be discussed in open court, and allwomen and a good many men were agog with curiosity and expectation.

The sum is so small that one is constrained tobelieve the repor...

Oscar Wildehad managed to get known and talked about and had kept his head abovewater for a couple of years while learning something about life andmore about himself. On the other hand he had spent almost all hispatrimony, had run into some debt besides; yet seemed as far as everfrom earning...
From 1884 on I met Oscar Wilde continually, now at the theatre, now insome society drawing room; most often, I think, at Mrs. Jeune's(afterwards Lady St. Helier).
