Full marks for honesty. An author's note states: The poems in this collection, dating from about 1890 to the present year 1919, are printed in something approximating to chronological order. Consequently readers are invited to note that the best poems are not, generally speaking, to be found in the beginning of the volume.
Hell, if Bosie were alive I'd have killed him, he was such a whinging manipulator. There's no accounting for love, but its a shame Oscar set eyes on him!
Includes the poems in original English, followed by French translations.
First publication of the author of the Lord Alfred Douglas poetry, occurring one year after the trial of Oscar Wilde where he was convicted of homosexuality, and at a time when the book could not be published in England.
