Vera, or The Nihilists, A Florentine Tragedy—A Fragment, and La Sainte Courtisane

Contained in this volume are three of Oscar Wilde's shorter dramatic works. ‘Vera, or the Nihilists’, the longest of the three, is a complete four-act play with a prologue. ‘A Florentine Tragedy—A Fragment’, is as the title would suggest a fragment of an act and ‘La Sainte Courtisane’ is also but a single act. Wilde fans will delight in these shorter examples of his talent as a dramatic humorist.
