MOTHER OF OSCAR
by Joy Melville | Read by Patricia Gallimore
Biography & Memoir • 15 hrs. • Unabridged • © 1994
Oscar Wilde's mother was a flamboyant blue stocking and champion of Irish independence. Patricia Gallimore reads this biography attractively in measured, aristocratic tones. Although a lighter touch would have brought out more of Jane Wilde's wit, the listener must thank the narrator for elevating the mediocre writing.
