Wilde’s ‘Lord Arthur Saville’s Crime’ was a wonderful little read. It’s a short story about a man who has his hand read by a chirologist and his course of action in responding to a dark fate, therefore pitching him in a battle with destiny. Wilde therefore explores why one shouldn’t meddle with fate and includes dashes of aristocratic pomp, revolutionary attitudes and in Wilde’s usual fashion incredibly crafted prose. There were no individual lines alike to ones in ‘The Picture of Dorian Gray’ that blew me away but as a work it was much shorter so wasn’t allowed the time to blossom quite so much, though despite this Wilde’s ability as a wordsmith has not failed to disappoint. It was an engaging story with interesting themes and I can’t pick many faults whatsoever, from what I have read of his works Wilde is yet to disappoint.
