Sinossi

First published anonymously in 1894, The Green Carnation created a scandal that contributed to Oscar Wilde's downfall and was withdrawn from print for many years afterwards. Hichens was a friend of Wilde, but in love with 'Bosie'. He exacted revenge for his frustrated feelings by assiduously, and secretly, noting down their conversations, both public and more intimate and using them in this cruel satire on Wilde and his circle. Despite the less than sublime motivation behind its creation, the novel nevertheless preserves many examples of Wilde's brilliant wit which may have been otherwise lost to us and no one who loves his work should neglect this curious Edwardian production.
