About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of The Poems of Oscar Wilde by Oscar Wilde. Read in English by Tomas Peter; Lian Pang Complied by Thomas B. Mosher and released in 1906, this collection contains nearly every poem published by Oscar Wilde during his lifetime. From his Oxford undergrad days, through his rise to fame and scandal, all the way to his death, we witness an iconic author's evolution. This work is derived from Wilde's first published piece, the 1878 Newdigate Prize-winning Ravenna, his 1881 poetry collection, and verses found in literary magazines and other publications. - Summary by Mary Kay
