(Bilingual English – Spanish Edition • Edición Bilingüe Inglés – Español)

From the haunting prison ballad that marked his downfall to the decadent romanticism of his youth, experience Wilde’s complete poetic journey in two languages.

About the Poet:

The flamboyant genius who dazzled London before scandal broke him, Oscar Wilde wrote poetry as extravagant as his velvet coats and as sharp as his famous wit. An Irishman who conquered England, a married man who loved men, a socialist who adored luxury—his contradictions fueled verses that glitter with wordplay while aching with vulnerability. Even after prison crushed his spirit, he left us the heartbreaking “Ballad of Reading Gaol,” proving beauty could bloom in the darkest soil.
