Bosie

Lord Alfred Douglas, known as "Bosie," is often remembered as Oscar Wilde's lover, a role that shaped his strange celebrity after Wilde's trial and imprisonment. While biographies of Wilde often overlook Bosie's later life, this book tells the full story of his complex existence. It covers his successful but now obscure poetic career, his renunciation of homosexuality after converting to Roman Catholicism, and his ill-fated marriage. The narrative also explores his growing interest in religion, costly feuds, and his eventual death as a neglected figure.
