A masterclass in the manipulation of the English language 'Poems in Prose' is a collection of six poems, from the pen of one of the world's most celebrated writers. Delving into themes such as art, Christianity, vanity, sin, and love, Wilde flexes his literary muscles to create six works of enduring beauty and profound insight. The only poems published during his lifetime, this is a superb collection for those who want to see behind the wit that Wilde often used to protect himself.-
