    One night, a society palm-reader agreed to see Oscar Wilde in her London flat. Wilde’s lover was urging him to sue the Marquis of Queensberry for criminal libel. But Wilde’s friends were warning him to leave town. In Extremis reveals the strange turmoil of that night, as a man at the height of his fame turns to a complete stranger for advice about a potentially life-changing decision.
