Oscar Wilde & Vraždy za svitu svíček
Londýn, 1889. Oscar Wilde, oslavovaný básník, dramatik a velký vypravěč, je literární senzací svého věku. Celá Evropa mu leží u nohou. Když však nalezne zohavené tělo šestnáctiletého chlapce, bizarně naaranžované v pokoji zalitém pouze světlem svíček, rozhodne se vraždu objasnit.
Za pomoci spisovatelského kolegy Arthura C. Doylea se pouští do rozplétání záhadných okolností smrti nešťastného hocha. Díky své slávě a výřečnosti dokáže proniknout do nejrůznějších míst, jaká jen může viktoriánský Londýn nabídnout: honosných salónů pro nejvyšší společnost, do bohémských ateliérů i do brlohů, kde přebývají velmi pochybné existence. Avšak dříve, než se pátrání dobere nějakých jasných výsledků, vrah sprovodí ze světa další oběť a dá najevo, že ve svém hrůzném počínání hodlá pokračovat…
Oscar Wilde a vraždy za svitu svíček je napínavý detektivní příběh, v němž paralelně poznáváme i skrytý svět Oscara Wildea – jeho složité manželství i neobvyklé přátelské vztahy s významnými osobnostmi té doby. Na každém kroku nás pochopitelně provází proslulý Wildeův břitký humor a sarkasmus, a tak lze říct, že svižný a překvapivý závěr je už jen třešinkou na dortu.

Lacná kniha Oscar Wilde & Kruh smrti (-50%)
Koho byste zabili, kdyby vás za to nemohl stihnout trest?Píše se rok 1892, Oscar Wilde je hvězdou Londýna a slaví obrovský úspěch se svou hrou Vějíř lady Windermerové. Projevy přízně a uznání neberou konce, a tak se Oscar jednoho večera rozhodne sezvat blízké přátele na opulentní oslavu. Pro pobavení vznešené společnosti pak navrhne společenskou hru Na vraždu. Vyzve všechny hosty, aby každý z nich napsal na kousek papíru jméno toho z přítomných, kterého by zavraždil, měl-li by jistotu, že nebude nikdy odhalen.Zdánlivě nevinná zábava má však netušené pokračování. Členové samozvaného „kruhu smrti“, mezi nimiž pochopitelně nechybí Arthur Conan Doyle a básník Robert Sherard, se totiž den po oslavě dozví, že první ze zvolených obětí byla skutečně nalezena mrtvá. Všichni dobře vědí, že vrahem je jeden z nich – a že lístků se jmény bylo čtrnáct…Oscar Wilde se tedy znovu pouští do vyšetřování, jehož peripetie ho zavedou mezi politiky, do divadla a dokonce i do boxerského ringu. Tam všude se totiž spřádaly tajné vášně, jež daly do pohybu děsivou sérii zločinů. Otázkou zůstává, jestli stihne Oscar vypátrat vraha dřív, než se sám stane jeho obětí.

The Picture of Dorian Gray
With an Introduction and Notes by John M.L. Drew, University of Buckingham.
Wilde's only novel, first published in 1890, is a brilliantly designed puzzle, intended to tease conventional minds with its exploration of the myriad interrelationships between art, life, and consequence. From its provocative Preface, challenging the reader to believe in 'art for art's sake', to its sensational conclusion, the story self-consciously experiments with the notion of sin as an element of design.
Yet Wilde himself underestimated the consequences of his experiment, and its capacity to outrage the Victorian establishment. Its words returned to haunt him in his court appearances in 1895, and he later recalled the 'note of doom' which runs like 'a purple thread' through its carefully crafted prose.

A readingi fegyház balladája
Az ember esendő voltán, szabadságot, levegőt szomjazó vágyán mereng Oscar Wilde ebben az örökbecsű költeményben. A bűn idegen az embertől, még ha elkövette is: a gaztett pillanata s a büntetés is – ellentmond az ember lényegének. S míg a halálra ítélt bűnös esendő, elpazarolt emberségét siratja, vágyai egy jobb világ felé szállnak, melyből eltűnik majd a bűn, és így elmarad majd a megtorlás keserves, gyászos processzusa is.

De Profundis (EN)
"But it is a very unimaginative nature that only cares for people on their pedestals. A pedestal may be a very unreal thing. A pillory is a terrific reality. " Thus wrote Oscar Wilde in a farewell letter to his lover Lord Alfred Douglas (Bosie) in 1897 while serving a two-year sentence for "gross indecency with other male persons".
