Hmm, by the time I reach 50, I am sure you will know that there is very little I will not do to reach a goal... especially when that goal is to become a respected member of society (lit. forum)... I will even stoop to flattery... and all kinds of headstands and charming tricks like standing on my hind legs and yelp...



One post closer... (thread hopelessly derailed in the process)

EDIT: You were right... I managed to "cram" the posts in there, but I still do not think you are selfish, witchy, dictatorial, etc.

Today I got the complete works of Oscar Wilde. Thick book, it is. O_O I'm covered in all areas! :lol: It's got everrrything, even his one and only novel. ^_^

I think I got the same thing. I'm good to go.

It seems to me like we'll be reading Wilde's short stories soon :D

Going once...

Just for clarification, is the actual title "Complete Shorter fiction"? I'm looking now for the book, but this is the only one I've found that really sounds close.

I only know about the short stories he wrote for kids...it's called Happy Prince and other stories...
Is there another book with a different title?!

There is one particular book but any book which includes his stories, which have been listed above my Logos, will do! :)

They are all available on here: http://www.online-literature.com/wilde/

Thank you for clearing that up :D

Going twice...

Looking forward reading your posts, Caspian :)
