    Often times‚ authors and playwrights write characters and plots based on life experiences. These ordeals can very much alter one’s life and the perception of it. Author and playwright Oscar Wilde is no exception to this; with the many experiences that his own life holds‚ such as his double identity and homosexuality in the Victorian Era‚ Wilde is able to write his autobiography as a novel or play using characters similar to ones in his own life‚ as he has. In The Importance of Being Earnest‚ Algernon
