It is no wonder even Oscar himself disliked this story. It's just so poorly written and it's beyond me how it was used as legitimate evidence against him in the trial. If it's at a local library and you like Oscar/Bosie, read it simply because it's short but don't make my mistake and purchase it!

I found the story and subtle yet obvious revelations of the green carnation to be a tantalising glimpse into the subtlety of sexuality in the eighteen hundreds. I recommend it as indolent, decadent and a complete delight for any one interested in an insight into the lives of Oscar Wilde and Alfred Douglas.
