An important historical and literary fact: in fact, this scandalous novel was not written by Oscar Wilde, but by the young English writer John Francis Bloxam, who anonymously published it in December 1894 in the Oxford magazine The Chameleon. Due to the bright aesthetic and homoerotic orientation of the text, the authorship was mistakenly (and often deliberately to raise sales) attributed to Wilde, under whose name it was published in France.
