Thanks Viktor and Erin,

Yes, I must have missed that. Please delete "his". So, "after the death of Oscar Wilde".

(I think I originally wrote "after the death of his former lover Oscar Wilde" but then I used that phrase later in the description and intended to delete the earlier instance)

Thanks a lot, Erin. A wild(e) ride indeed!

He wrote two later books, one of which I have. It’s a lot shorter and seemingly more focussed on Wilde (I’ve not read it yet). I will probably record it at some point, after we’ve both had a bit of a break from him.

Thanks, Erin.

I didn't spot those markers when editing. Evidently I need to snap my fingers louder!

Yes, his son had a rough time of it. I think he ended up confined to a mental hospital.

One possible note for chapter 4, depending on your preferences:

And where the Devil’s grace, [head glance] to counterfeit,
I don’t know if you want word-perfect for poetry.

It's sad how convinced he was that if he could have testified at Wilde's trials he could have convinced the jury to acquit. Not likely.

Are Robert Ross's stories any good? I've not read them.

Me neither. I don't know how easily available they are.

Thanks for all the PLing. I'm not getting email notifications again for some reason, hence why I've been slow to respond, but I'll get it sorted.

Thanks, Erin, that would be great.

Thanks Viktor and Erin for all your help getting this audiobook out there. I’ll be back soon with another project.

Thanks, Viktor! All looks good except that only one of the two authors is listed. Could you please add Lloyd Lewis (1891 - 1849)? His name goes before Henry Justin Smith’s.

Thanks,
Rob
