Description
80pp., orig. cloth. The autograph manuscript of Wildeís ìDe Profundisî has been reproduced in this limited edition from the British Library. Written on blue prison paper, it is a confessional letter from Reading gaol addressed to Lord Alfred (Bosie) Douglas. It is a defence of Wildeís opinions and conduct, and reads emotionally and lyrically when he is describing the depth of his feelings for his sometime friend. It is a unique opportunity to obtain a facsimile of this important literary document.
