Memoirs of My Dead Life

by George Moore

Overview

George Moore was one of the more interesting writers to emerge from Victorian times. A boyhood friend of Oscar Wilde in Ireland, he later turned down the offer to write an introduction to a biography about his flamboyant compatriot's works because he considered Wilde to be a writer "in the third or fourth class and, therefore, not worth troubling about."
