Оскар Уайльд — знаменитый ирландский поэт, драматург и писатель. В 1895 году он был осужден за "грубую непристойность" и приговорён к двум годам каторжных работ. "De Profundis" — письмо из тюрьмы лорду Альфреду Дугласу, близкому другу Уайльда, сыгравшему главную роль в его заключении. Текст послания не только наполнен злостью и горечью разочарования, но и обнажает глубину чувства, которое испытывал поэт к Дугласу.

В книге представлена версия романа, написанная в 1891 году, состоящая из 20 глав. Это первый и единственный роман писателя, который произвёл огромный резонанс. Литературные критики требовали его запретить, однако большинство читателей приняли произведение с восторгом. Однажды любуясь своим портретом, главный герой высказывает роковое желание, оставаться всегда таким же молодым. С тех пор у Грея не появилось ни одной морщины, но каждый его порочный шаг делал безобразным лицо на холсте.

The eyes of the Happy Prince were full of tears. He was so sad and beautiful that the little swallow was sad, too. 'Who are you?' asked the little swallow. 'I am the Happy Prince', the statue answered. 'But you aren't happy. You're crying', said the little swallow.

In an extended letter Wilde accuses Lord Alfred of selfishness, shallowness, parasitism, greed, extravagance, tantrums, pettiness and neglect.

Wilde, glamorous and notorius, more famous as a playwright or prisoner than as a poet, invites readers of his verse to meet an unknown and intimate figure. The poetry of his formative years includes the haunting elegy to his young sister and the grieving lyric at the death of his father. The religious drama of his romance with Rome is captured here, as well as its resolution in his renewed love of ancient Greece. He explores forbidden sexual desires, pays homage to the great theatre stars and...
