Complete Poetry by Oscar Wilde, Isobel Murray

4.0

---

Of the classic literature pioneers, I’ve always loved Oscar Wilde, but I actually hadn’t read a lot of his works besides Dorian Gray. I’ve never been a poetry person (though by now, with how many times I’ve read certain poetry and enjoyed it, I should really just say I’m a poetry person depending on the poet) but I loved Oscar Wilde’s poems. I highlighted a lot of individual lines throughout this collection, and I think his poems are clearer and easier for me to understand than most classic poets. This collection, Dorian Gray, and a small book of epigrams are all the Wilde works I’ve read, but I’ll be on the hunt now for a collection of his complete works.
