Take a seat in Walt Whitman’s study and watch what happens when the famous American poet meets the infamous Irish playwright Oscar Wilde. Cultures clash, words fly, egos flare, and secrets emerge as two of the greatest writers of the 19th century come face-to-face in this dramatic re-creation of the 1882 meeting between Oscar Wilde and Walt Whitman.

Donald S. Olson is a novelist, playwright and travel writer. He has published seven novels, including The Confessions of Aubrey Beardsley, The Secrets of Mabel Eastlake, and My Three Husbands (written as Swan Adamson).
