The Ballad of Reading Gaol

vào
A reflection on Wilde’s death penalty, The Ballad of Reading Gaol, comes after he was sentenced and grossly jailed. The allegations stem from a relationship with Lord Alfred Douglas, son of the Marquis of Queensberry. This is the story of the execution of a man who killed his wife, which Wild witnessed during his residency.


By : Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900)
