Our second Author of Pride Month is none other than Oscar Wilde!
Traveling around the world from Ireland and self-proclaiming that he kissed another famous poet named Walt Whitman, Oscar Wilde was persecuted, jailed, and sentenced to two years of hard labor for being gay. Oscar Wilde used his artistry to continue the narrative that there is more to love than the singular, heterosexual man-and-woman relationship. Love knows no bounds and, many times brings us our biggest strengths. Famous for his book, “The Portrait of Dorian Gray” (1891), we will be reading from his list of poems that he might not be more attributed with.
“Be yourself; Everyone else has already been taken.” “The only people I would care to be with now are writers and people who have suffered: those who know what beauty is, and those who know what sorrow is: nobody else interests me.”
