Beschreibung
The life story of Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900) inspired English writer Peter Ackroyd (*1949) in his novel "The Fictional Diary of Oscar Wilde," where he wrote Wilde's biography in the form of a fictional autobiography, which could be summed up by Wilde's famous quote, "I can resist anything except temptation!" Peter Ackroyd brilliantly captures Wilde's style full of paradoxes and irony, and for this stylistic mastery, he received the Somerset Maugham Award. Peter Ackroyd's book "The Fictional Diary of Oscar Wilde" was nominated for the competition "The Most Beautiful Books of the Year" for its graphic design and printing.
