Oscar Wilde, Wilfred Owen, and Male Desire

Oscar Wilde, Wilfred Owen, and Male Desire Begotten, Not Made

This book reads Oscar Wilde as a queer theorist and Wilfred Owen as his symbolic son. It centers on the concept of 'male procreation', or the generation of new ideas through an erotic but non-physical connection between two men, and it sees Owen as both a product and a continuation of this Wildean tradition.
