Description
Written from Wilde’s prison cell at Reading Gaol to his friend and lover Lord Alfred Douglas, *De Profundis* explodes the conventions of the traditional love letter and offers a scathing indictment of Douglas’s behavior, a mournful elegy for Wilde’s own lost greatness, and an impassioned plea for reconciliation. At once a bracingly honest account of ruinous attachment and a profound meditation on human suffering, *De Profundis* is a classic of gay literature. Richard Ellmann calls *De Profundis* “a love letter…One of the greatest, and the longest, ever written.” This Modern Library Paperback Classics edition contains newly commissioned notes. *From the Trade Paperback edition.*
