I don't have any off the top of my head. But Oscar wrote some F*cked Up stuff. It was all so dipressing.

Take the Happy Prince, notably one of Wilde's greatest works. It ends with the greedy city government fight over the who will become the next statue, and the stripped down prince in being melted, not to mention the faithful sparrow freezing to death. I don't know your definition of depressing but is nearly there.

I will... I have it right here on my bookshelf, but I am op to my neck in homework right now, have to finish a history report on the development, importance and encouragement of English archery throughout The Hundred Years War... and write a speech in english on a subject I chose for this contest which can win me a trip to England... But I shal try to read it sometimes, have read bits of it already, and thus understand the deepest core of you?? smiley - winkeye
Anyways, "peice"?? Have you read "Men at Arms" by Terry Pratchett? It ain't excactly Oscar Wilde, but it is bloody good and you ought to read it... then you'll know why I quote "Peice".

I suppose what I'm doing might equal college... I'm in my 12th year of school anyway, except here what I'm doing is called the Gymnasium, but has nothing in particular to do with Gymnastics, though, that's just what it's called (if you wanna try to make an educated guess of my homecountry, feel free... but no peaking at my personal space... I can reveal that I ain't one of you Bushy people... though our chap in charge really isn't much better. I didn't vote for him, I'm not old enough... Oh bugger, my conversation slipped into a bracket again, they do that all the time... smiley - smiley)
Oh damn, that history-thing is eating me alive!!!!
Weel... you don't like country? Do you know Joni Mitchell by any chance?
