Oscar Wilde: The Complete Interviews

Written by: Oscar Wilde
Listen for free

This complete collection of Oscar Wilde’s English language interviews gives listeners the opportunity to hear one of history’s greatest conversationalists in full flow. Newspaper interviewers repeatedly sought Wilde out for his “Oscarisms” – his trademark witty phrases – as well as his views on topics ranging from poetry to politics, and acting to architecture.

The ordering of the interviews is chronological according to when they were given rather than publication date. Wilde’s few interviews in French and Italian are excluded. For the non-English language interviews, other articles of interest, burlesque interviews, interviews given about Wilde by his contemporaries, and notes, see the print version of Oscar Wilde: The Complete Interviews.
