This was simply a fantastic read. I loved An Ideal Husband and The Importance of Being Earnest, so decided it was time to read this work of Wilde. I was hooked from start to finish - it's no secret that Wilde is a master of the pen, but the imagination of this piece is really what captured my interest. Can't wait to re-read annually! A perfect spooky classic.
