<p><strong>THE DEFINITIVE STUDY OF OSCAR WILDE'S POSTHUMOUS REPUTATION, WRITTEN BY WILDE'S ONLY GRANDSON</strong></p><p><strong>"FASCINATING"</strong><strong>-STEPHEN FRY</strong></p><p>A feat of storytelling and scholarship, After Oscar tells the story of Os[1]car's wife Constance and his sons; his lovers, friends, and enemies; the afterlife of <em>De Profundis</em>; sightings from beyond the grave; the fate of the Wilde estate; and Oscar's contemporary status as a gay icon.</p><p>One of the most important works on Wilde in over fifty years, <em>After Oscar</em> exposes decades of sensationalist conjecture surrounding the Wilde family, and documents a century of homophobia within the British establishment. Illuminating and heartbreaking, Holland has written a book that will amuse, infuriate, fascinate, and shock. Readers beware-you're in for a Wilde ride.</p>
