Oscar Wilde continued

Well I continued with my Oscar Wilde pre-occupation (though totally failed to see Dorian Gray in the cinema). I listened to Dorian Gray in the car on the way to work – though I remembered it was excellent, I had forgotten just how good the  story was.

I also read the first of Gyles Brandreth’s Oscar Wilde mysteries – Oscar Wilde and the Candlelight Murders. Having read the second one first I found this one wasn’t as good – though this was probably because this one does more background and scene setting. Useful if you aren’t in the middle of a Wilde obsession.

I’d say well worth a read if you are interested in Wilde as it is full of useful background and scene setting – plus a pretty interesting murder mystery.
