"He didn't write that much, so it's easy enough to own--and read--it all. And it's all worth reading. I particularly like his literary criticism, which is just as entertaining as his fiction and drama. Sure you can pick and choose, and it's easier to read "Earnest" in a slimmer edition. But eventually (trust me), you will want it all."
"I've read everything that Wilde ever wrote and I love all of his stories, poems, and essays. The Picture of Dorian Gray is a definite favorite, along with The Ballad of Reading Gaol and De Profundis. Wilde had some amazing insights on art, morality, the human condition, and religion."
"i was reminded of how witty and intelligent -and cynical- mr wilde was...great read!! i loved his short stories which were new to me and totally enjoyed rereading the more familiar plays...sadly my current read does not give me the same warm feeling!!"
