I've always thought that Wilde is tiresome and overrated.Snarkiness for snarkiness' sake will not put you in the first tier of authors, especially not in Ireland, where every author is witty.
As tiresome as Wilde can be, he cannot rival his fanbase for the title.
He's more a symbol then a great literary figure. H.L. Mencken had him pegged when he said that his inverted sayings and epigrams eventually become just as mechanical as a preacher spouting platitudes.
