Barnes & Noble Classics pulls together a constellation of influences—biographical historical and literary—to enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works. Oscar Wilde brings his enormous gifts for astute social observation and sparkling prose to The Picture of Dorian Gray his dreamlike story of a young man who sells his soul for eternal youth and beauty. This dandy who remains forever unchanged—petulant hedonistic vain and amoral—while a painting of him ages and grows increasingly hideous with the years has been horrifying enchanting obsessing even corrupting readers for more than a hundred years. Taking the reader in and out of London drawing rooms to the heights of aestheticism and to the depths of decadence The Picture of Dorian Gray is not only a melodrama about moral corruption. Laced with bon mots and vivid depictions of upper-class refinement it is also a fascinating look at the milieu of Wilde’s fin-de-siècle world and a manifesto of the creed “Art for Art’s Sake.†The ever-quotable Wilde who once delighted London with his scintillating plays scandalized readers with this his only novel. Upon publication Dorian was condemned as dangerous poisonous stupid vulgar and immoral and Wilde as a “driveling pedant.†The novel in fact was used against Wilde at his much-publicized trials for “gross indecency†which led to his imprisonment and exile on the European continent. Even so The Picture of Dorian Gray firmly established Wilde as one of the great voices of the Aesthetic movement and endures as a classic that is as timeless as its hero.</p> Barnes & Noble Classics hardcover

200400101027<p>Norwalk Connecticut: The Easton Press 2004. 2004 FULL GENUINE LEATHER FINE BINDING by Easton Press -- NOT THE REGULAR TRADE CLOTH BINDING OR THE CHEAPER COMPOSITE LEATHER. Deep red leather binding features beautiful gilt designs/gilt lettering 287 pages. Illustrations by Lucille Corcos. Sophisticated binding: Five raised ridges on spine; lettering designs stamped with gorgeous accents of 22kt. gold -- a hallmark of fine bookmaking. This beautifully bound book was hand selected from individually tanned hides. Endpapers are beautiful satin moiré. Textured and shaded acid-neutral paper won't turn yellow over time.

Condition: Fine never read right from the publisher. Free of smelly old humidity stains and the smoke smell of a cigarette or cigar smoker. Stored in temperature-controlled bookcase. Book in gift-giving condition. This wonderful story by Oscar Wilde draws the reader hypnotically into the life of a handsome youth. Through the artist who is doing his portrait Dorian meets Lord Henry Wotton who initiates him into a life of vice. Though the story has a melodramatic end its very horror induces what Coleridge called "that willing suspension of disbelief which constitutes poetic faith." In an eerie way the story reflects its author's own bizarre career as if in a distorting and prophetic mirror. A wonderful story and brilliant as any of the witty repartee in Wilde's plays. A collectible book. Note: We are a well-established well-respected ethical book dealer in business since 1991. We describe the condition of our books thoroughly and honestly so you'll know exactly what you will receive when you order. We ship promptly. . Leather Bound. Fine.</p> The Easton Press hardcover
