Oscar Wilde - His Life and Confessions by Frank Harris audiobook. Genre: biography In Oscar Wilde - His Life and Confessions, journalist, editor, and notorious raconteur Frank Harris offers a vivid, argumentative portrait of one of the most dazzling figures of the late Victorian world. Part biography, part memoir, and part personal testimony, the book traces Wilde's rise from brilliant student and apostle of aestheticism to celebrated playwright and social lion, while also probing the private appetites and risky choices that collided with the era's strict moral codes. Harris writes not as a distant scholar but as a man who knew Wilde, recreating conversations, drawing sharp character sketches of friends and enemies, and insisting on his own interpretation of what Wilde wanted, feared, and believed. Alongside the glamour of salons and opening nights, Harris follows the tightening net of gossip, law, and public outrage, and the devastating consequences that follow when wit and fame prove no shield. The result is a dramatic, intimate account of genius, self-invention, and the price of defiance, as well as a revealing look at the storyteller behind the story.
