In addition to Wilde's five major plays, this Signet Classics edition contains:
- Two interviews with the playwright at the peak of his career, in which Wilde discusses his work--and his critics
- Some of his most brilliant critical writing, in which he discusses the nature of art in terms that anticipate much of today's literary theory
- An appendix that restores valuable lines that appeared in the original text of The Importance of Being Earnest
With an Introduction by Sylvan Barnet
and a New Afterword by Marylu Hill
