Lord Arthur Savile's Crime by Oscar Wilde

aj_16_'s review against another edition

3.0

This is with disclaimer that I know Oscar Wilde never meant all these stories to be read altogether.

Lord Arthur Savile's Crime was pretty interesting, my favourite short story by Oscar Wilde so far. The Canterville Ghost is ofcourse a delight to read, but the others were pretty boring, not something I enjoyed.

A long short story. Pretty good. Not exactly dripping with witticisms but clever and funny enough.

Lord Arthur is a gullible twit and a man devoted to honour and duty...a dangerous combination for a fortune-teller to encounter!
