2020br. Allan Percy raccoglie 99 perle di saggezza da qualcuno che, proprio a causa della sua esistenza incentrata sui piaceri, ben conosceva gli estremi dell'animo umano. E trasferisce questi messaggi alle situazioni di tutti i giorni per insegnarci a superare i momenti di sconforto e affrontare con spirito ogni difficoltà. Brillante scrittore, drammaturgo e polemista, Oscar Wilde è considerato il più grande autore di aforismi della storia moderna. I suoi pensieri incisivi, arguti e ricchi di humour ci accompagneranno in un viaggio alla scoperta di noi stessi. Pagina dopo pagina, passando dai toni leggeri del dandy alle passioni più tormentate del ribelle, emergerà una visione del mondo che esalta il valore dell'individuo, della sua unicità e insieme della bellezza - che aspetta solo di essere rivelata - della nostra vita.
