Oscar Wilde by Richard Ellmann
3.0
Ellmann's biography is painstaking research into the life and times of Oscar Wilde. He draws on letters and readings and contemporary accounts of Wilde to build his life.
Wilde was precocious and insecure and wildy intelligent, as well as loving and romantic and sometimes, petulant.
I'd say this is only for die-hard fans, as it's a hard slog through some of the details.
