Has anyone read this? If so, is it worth a purchase?

I've got the book; haven't read it for a few years now. It's a decent read although surprisingly Wilde's place of birth is wrong in the book. Is it worth purchasing? Largely depends on what you are paying for it as prices differ wildly (no pun intended!).

I was told £250 for a copy frm the publisher, but I've found somewhere on Amazon that sells a hardback version for £25.

Reckon it's worth that?

When I said prices differ wildly even I wasn't thinking they range from £25 - £250 :o
I paid £16 for a copy about 6/7 years back so yeah I suppose £25 is about right - and if you don't like it you can always re-sell and make your money back.
