The Trial of Oscar Wilde

The Trial of Oscar Wilde (Dramatic Reading) - audiobook

ANONYMOUS ( - )

In 1895 Oscar Wilde was 

convicted of Gross Indecency 

and sentenced to 

Two Years' Hard Labour. 

This account of his two trials was compiled from 

the original shorthand court reports 

by an anonymous author.

 

While a more complete account of The Trial 

was published several years later, 

it omitted the more 'sensational' exchanges. 

This shorter version was clearly intended 

for a more prurient reader. 

In it we hear Wilde's famous defence of 

"The Love that dare not speak its name", 

and see the evidence mount as 

a succession of attractive young men 

step into the witness box to tell their tales.
