| Description |
Did Oscar Wilde pen this classic gay erotica? The Reverse of the Medal is a pornographic novel published in 1893. The authorship of the work is unknown, but it has been attributed to Oscar Wilde. Set in fin-de-siècle Paris, it concerns the magnetic attraction and passionate, though an ultimately tragic, affair between a young Frenchman named Camille de Grieux and the Hungarian pianist René Teleny. |
