Remembering Oscar Wilde– Dublin, Ireland

 

Dublin-Ireland-Oscar Wilde's house

I was participating in a twitter chat yesterday , (hastagged) #TSBC about Oscar Wilde, which took me on a nostalgic journey. It reminded me of my trip to Dublin when we saw his statue in the park and stopped by his house, while listening to stories of how he was persecuted for his sexuality. To me Oscar Wilde is not just a great writer with an amazing wit, but someone whose irreverence and personality is celebrated in his epigrams and one liners today.
