Add to basketBrand-new, unread book, shipped directly from the publisher. Only Britain s most audaciously controversial poet, Jeremy Reed, rightly called by the Independent British poetry s glam, spangly, shape-shifting answer to David Bowie would have dared to conceive a book of electrifying essays focusing on Oscar Wilde as a punter picking up rent boys at Piccadilly Circus, the conspiratorial underworld ethos of London's gay demimonde in the 1890s inhabited by Wilde and the notorious Count Eric Stenbock, and linking the patronage of older men acquired primarily by outstanding looks to both Bosie's relations with Wilde, and to the young David Bowie's managerial sponsorship by Ken Pitt. Analogies between Wilde and Bowie are further extended by Oh, You Pretty Things , a consummately detailed essay on how both Wilde and Bowie conducted their first US tours, largely in drag.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE RIGHT OF CANCELLATION
Statutory Right to cancel
You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the the last good or the last lot or piece.

You may use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. You can also electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.
Effects of cancellation
If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
