As a poet, novelist, and short story writer, Oscar Wilde engages and fascinates his readers with his ability to make use of compatible contraries. His central works, including ""The Importance of Being Earnest"", ""The Picture of Dorian Gray"", ""Lady Windermere's Fan"", and ""Salome"", are discussed in this volume, offering readers a variety of ways of exploring and discussing Wilde's often boisterously comic writings. Writers will find valuable advice for composing effective essays about this witty Irishman.
