About this listen

 Welcome to The Wilde Library - a small, well-upholstered room of the mind where books are neither dusted nor forgiven, only opened.

Here we shelve the splendid, the scandalous, and the secretly sincere: comedies that cut like satin, stories that sparkle like poison, and ideas too beautifully dressed to behave. Each episode is an invitation to linger; between wit and wisdom, art and appetite, truth and the far more interesting thing - style.

After all, a library is simply a place where other people’s thoughts learn to flirt with your own.

    The Picture of Dorian Gray Chapter 3
    Feb 10 2026
    In which Lord Henry Wotton indulges in the leisurely art of conversation and gossip with his uncle and a select company, unveiling tales of heritage, society's peculiarities, and his own whimsical philosophy of life and pleasure. Amidst this genteel assembly, the young and captivating Dorian Gray finds himself the subject of curiosity and the recipient of Lord Henry’s beguiling attentions, setting the stage for a subtle orchestration of influence.
