The Picture of Dorian Gray: An Annotated Uncensored Edition

Welcome to a new blog through which I highlight findings from across the web, events of interest, and books in the humanities new to CWRU's Kelvin Smith Library collection.


This post is the first in what I hope is a recurring feature: a highlight of a recent library acquisition.

The Picture of Dorian Gray is the only novel published by Oscar Wilde.  In April, 2011, the Harvard University Press published this annotated and uncensored edition of the book.  Edited by Nicholas Frankel, the edition is also wonderfully illustrated throughout.


Whether you want to read this novel for the first time, or learn more about the book, its author and the age, check this title out at the library.
