wildefic - Profile (original) (raw)
on 11 October 2004 (#4797250)
This is a community for fanfic related to the most-awesome Oscar Wilde, 19th century poet, playwright, and foppish dandy. He is known for his superb wit and Byronic existence. The paragon of the Aesthetic Cult, prince of the Decadents, Oscar will always be remembered.
Welcome here are fics based on his plays (Like The Importance of Being Earnest, or A Man of No Importance), his novel (The Picture of Dorian Gray, a rich and delicate tapestry of Decadence), his fairytales (like the sublime tale of The Selfish Giant), or even his poems. Also welcome and encouraged here are fics about the man himself, his coterie (including his bright and beautiful lovers, Lord Alfred Douglas, and the ever-endearing Robert Ross.)
Slash is welcome. Slash is encouraged. Slash is awesome. This is a community for Oscar Wilde fic. Hence, slash. This man all but invented slash.
