读过《The Picture of Dorian Gray》 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕
已经记不得是第几遍读了，但是常读常新，这次深切感受到除了相当光明正大地暗示homosexuality（bushi）其实Dorian的两个朋友Lord Henry和Basil Hallward更像是肉体享乐和精神追求的隐喻，而不是一般意义上相互斗争的天使和恶魔，我甚至不觉得Lord Henry是有意腐化Dorian的，很多话给我的感觉是Lord Henry自己说出来多少有些pretentious的意味，但是Dorian却毫不犹豫地深信不疑恨不能当成箴言和人生信条，让你滑向诱惑的最终是你自己
The Picture of Dorian Gray [Book] Douban Goodreads Skybridge
'The horror, whatever it was, had not yet entirely spoiled that marvellous beauty'
Enthralled by his own exquisite portrait, Dorian Gray exchanges his soul for eternal youth and beauty. Influenced by his friend Lord Henry Wotton, he is drawn into a corrupt double life, indulging his desires in secret while remaining a gentleman in the eyes of polite society. Only his portrait bears the traces of his decadence. The Picture of Dorian Gray was a succès de scandale . Early readers were shocked by its hints at unspeakable sins, and the book was later used as evidence against Wilde at the Old Bailey in 1895.
This definitive edition includes a selection of contemporary reviews condemning the novel's immorality, and the introduction to the first Penguin Classics edition by Peter Ackroyd.
