Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Oscar Wilde, Vol. 1: His Life and Confessions I was advised on all hands not to write this book, and some English friends who have read it urge me not to publish it. "You will be accused of selecting the subject," they say, "because sexual viciousness appeals to you, and your method of treatment lays you open to attack. "You criticise and condemn the English conception of justice, and English legal methods: you even question the impartiality of English judges, and throw an unpleasant light on English juries and the English public - all of which is not only unpopular but will convince the unthinking that you are a presumptuous, or at least a i outlandish, person with too good a conceit oi himself and altogether too free a tongue." I should be more than human or less if these arguments did not give me pause. I would do nothing willingly to alienate the few who are still friendly to me. But the motives driving me are too strong for such personal considerations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
