Abstract
On the morning following the production of An Ideal Husband,1 I met Oscar Wilde as he came down the steps of a club at the top of St. James’s Street and I took advantage of the occasion to ask him what he thought of the attitude of the critics towards his play.
The Sketch (London) (9 Jan 1895) 495, where the complete title is ‘An Ideal Husband at the Haymarket Theatre: A Talk with Mr. Oscar Wilde’.
