studying for my history exam atm which is all to do with class society and the industrial revolution which is kind of the era this story is set? okay, i looked it up, it was written in 1891 which is after the industrial revolution but it still had that feel to it. also oscar wilde came up in my lectures anyway. what i'm trying to say is that i'm pretending i'm studying by reading this.

i did really enjoy it. it was an interesting look at fortune telling and how ultimately you make your own fortune, you create your own future. i would like to read more of wilde's work.
