Oscar Wilde Discovers America (1882) NY: Harcourt, Brace, 1936. Second Printing. Hardcover. 462 pages; Very Good/No Jacket. Attractive black cloth boards with gilt lettering. Tiny name neatly written to top inside front panel. Outside page edges lightly age tanned. Boards are straight, tips are pointed, spine is square and pages are clean. Many fine illustrations throughout. Oscar Wilde was born on October 16, 1854, in Dublin, the son of Sir William Wilde, an Irish Oculist remarkable for professional skill and personal untidiness, and of Lady Jane Algee Wilde, an aristocratic, gushing, ultra-romantic authoress, who was known to champions of Irish liberty as Speranza, writer of poems and articles befriending their cause. He graduated from Oxford and lived in London. He sold a few poems and prose articles to make a modest income. At this point he decided that the quick road to luxury lay in getting himself noticed. So he stepped in the limelight, going to all the first nights and taking the floor on all occasions. There he became known as a dilettante, a connoisseur of the arts, a critic of painting and literature, and a worshiper of beauty in woman.. Very Good with no dust jacket .
