THE RETURN OF THE CENTURY: THE DEATH AND af Ardythe Ashley
Bag om THE RETURN OF THE CENTURY: THE DEATH AND

In 1900, penniless and disgraced, Oscar Wilde, one of the greatest playwrights of all time, dies in a hotel in Paris. Or so everyone believes. Secretly his unconscious body, still flickering with life, is spirited away by devoted friends to an island monastery in the Venetian lagoon where he recovers his health and joie de vivre. From there he begins a series of adventures that include Auguste Rodin, a romance with an English aristocrat, a new lover, a session with Sigmund Freud, and an heroic death. Ashley's meticulously researched and imaginative novel honors Wilde's life and unparalleled command of the English language by giving voice to a writer who continues to charm and fascinate readers and audiences to this day.
