This guy is definitely not insured for his line of work. There aren't many Parisians that need to wear hiking shoes to work, but for Alain Cornu, when the sun fades behind the rooftops, the photographer packs up his gear, puts on his boots and heads to the nearest ladder that will lead him to the mo

Product Information This sensational new biography of Wilde is based on the author's discovery of some unpublished and little-known source material, relating particularly to his sex life. Neil McKenna argues that our view of Oscar Wilde, even after Ellman's magisterial volume, is determined by Victorian sentimentality. In his own much more modern version of Wilde's story, he is not only extremely promiscuous but also a sort of campaigner for sexual freedom. He reveals, for example, that Wilde's relationship with Lord Alfred Douglas was not an idealistic doting on a beautiful boy, but that Bosie was the more dominant, experienced of the two, who used to go out hunting together for young boys. Wilde's last days in Paris were not, McKenna shows, miserable and defeated; Paris was for him an idyllic, sensual and intellectual playground free from the narrowness of London.
