Teleny, or The Reverse of the Medal (A Gay Erotica Classic attributed to Oscar Wilde)
This carefully crafted ebook: "Teleny, or The Reverse of the Medal (A Gay Erotica Classic attributed to Oscar Wilde)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.
Teleny is a pornographic novel, first published in London in 1893. The authorship of the work is unknown. There is a general consensus that it was an ensemble effort, but it has often been attributed to Oscar Wilde. Set in fin-de-siècle Paris, its concerns are the magnetic attraction and passionate though ultimately tragic affair between a young Frenchman named Camille de Grieux and the Hungarian pianist René Teleny. The novel is significant as one of the earliest pieces of English-language pornography to explicitly and near-exclusively concern homosexuality; as well as for a lush and literate, though variable prose style - and a relative complexity and depth of character and plot development - that give it as much in common with the Aesthetic fiction of the period as with its typical pornography.
Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900) is a central figure in aesthetic writing. Wilde was a poet, fiction writer, essayist and editor. Oscar Wilde is often seen as a homosexual icon although as many men of his day he was also a husband and father. Wilde's life ended at odds with Victorian morals that surrounded him. He died in exile.

Oscar Wilde
**Oscar Wilde** (1854–1900), écrivain irlandais, est l’une des figures majeures de la littérature victorienne. Connu pour son esprit mordant et son esthétisme, il a marqué l’histoire littéraire avec des œuvres comme *The Picture of Dorian Gray* et *The Importance of Being Earnest*. *The Happy Prince and Other Tales*, publié en 1888, révèle son talent pour le conte, mêlant **poésie**, **satire sociale** et **profondeur morale**. Sa vie, marquée par son engagement pour la liberté individuelle et son procès pour homosexualité, a fait de lui un symbole de la lutte contre l’intolérance.
