A review by elysareadsitall
Oscar Wilde and the Dead Man's Smile by Gyles Brandreth

2.0

The mystery part of this story was interesting, but unfortunately it was a small part of the story. The story seems to be a very long ramble through a year in the life of Oscar Wilde just so the author can name and quote drop as often as possible. Obviously when reading a fictional tale about a famous person's life, you want some easter eggs dropped in, but there is such a thing as too much of a good thing. I got impatient with the story a few times and just wanted to get on with the actual plot.
