by Oscar Wilde (Author), Matt Dicintio (Translator)
Inspired by symbolist poetry and the frequent appearance of Salome in contemporary art and literature, Oscar Wilde wrote SALOME in French during a Paris stay in 1891-92. The play's sexuality and religious needling-not to mention the final scene in which Salome embraces the decapitated head of a saint-drew censors' ire. No public presentation was given in England until 1931.
