Résumé

La storia, descritta con uno stile velatamente ironico ma delicato, è anche improntata a un certo raffinato decadentismo, tipico di Wilde. Il breve racconto (non più di quattro o cinque pagine) narra la storia di un giovane bello e di modeste risorse che, grazie ad un incredibile, quanto inaspettato colpo di fortuna, riesce ad arricchirsi ed a coronare il suo sogno d’amore. Il gioco della narrazione sta proprio nel finale totalmente a sorpresa che ribalta improvvisamente le prospettive che avevano fino ad un instante prima ingannato il lettore. Con uno stile scorrevole e delicato, non privo di qualche francesismo qua e lа, Wilde ci dà in questo racconto un buon saggio della sua prosa ironica e raffinata al tempo stesso.

Auteur

Oscar Wilde (auteur)

Oscar Wilde was a prominent figure in the aestheticism movement, engaging in various literary activities such as publishing poems and lecturing on art. He gained fame with his only novel, "The Picture of Dorian Gray," which incorporated themes of decadence and beauty. Wilde also wrote successful society comedies and was one of the most renowned playwrights of late-Victorian London. However, his fame was overshadowed by a scandal when he prosecuted the Marquess of Queensberry for libel, leading to his own arrest and trial for gross indecency. Wilde was convicted and sentenced to two years' hard labor. During his imprisonment, he wrote his last work, "The Ballad of Reading Gaol." Wilde's life was marked by personal tragedies, including the death of his sister and the loss of his reputation. He left a lasting legacy as a writer and is remembered for his wit and literary contributions.
