Oscar Wilde lived in an age which prided itself onits moral virtue, especially when it came to theinstitution of marriage. The Victorians projected animage of a happy home free of corruption. However,Wilde exposed the truth behind this façade, attackingfamily life in Victorian society. He presents us withthe reality of marriage in that hypocritical agewhich was anything but idyllic.This book takes a closer look at his works, focusingon his fairy tales, novel, and plays, and traces thedevelopment of the theme of the broken home inconnection to the larger theme of sin, crime, andevil. The analysis should help shed light on thefailures that infected Victorian families and on theemergence of the evil New Woman who served as acatalyst in the break-down of the home. It shouldalso be especially useful to fans of Oscar Wilde whowant to explore how his works portray his dive intothe demonic realm.
