WILDE AT HIS BEST
THE YOUNG KING AND OTHER STORIES, by Oscar Wilde; Folio Society, English price 18/-. W ILDE at his best was an artist whose reputation grows with the decades, a reputation which Carson’s just reprobation of Wilde the man will not dim. These short stories are Wilde at his best and the publishers have done good work in producing a new edition of an established classic. The format, the Perpetua type, the wood engravings by John Gaastra, and the paper are a joy to behold. ‘Should be purchased by the dis-
criminating bibliophile.
