reviewed Best of Oscar Wilde on December 23, 2014 Best of Oscar Wilde
What the fuck does a mummy know about decadence? Doesn't anyone realise that not believing in the future is the essential mark of the decadent? That the worst of children is that they give you the greatest disadvantage of them all;hope?
Choking hope and being a nappy slave is not decadent. Smoking dope on Jim Morrison's grave is not decadent. Exploiting writers and their petty vanities is also, by the way, not decadent.
Decadence is for heavyweights. You need to posses the resources of character, the resilience of mind and the physical stamina to make of decadence, a kind of moral virtue and spiritual strength. It is not for silly.
His Royal Lowness.
