The Picture of Dorian Gray: The Original 1890 Edition (A Oscar Wilde Classic Novel)
Oscar Wilde • 2023
“The books that the world calls immoral are books that show the world its own shame.” ― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray<br/><br/>The Picture of Dorian Gray is a 1891 gothic and philosophical novel by Irish writer and playwright Oscar Wilde. First published as a serial story in the July 1890 issue of Lippincott's Monthly Magazine, the editors feared the story was indecent, and without Wilde's knowledge, deleted five hundred words before publication.<br/><br/>Despite that censorship, The Picture of Dorian Gray offended the moral sensibilities of British book reviewers, some of whom said that Oscar Wilde merited prosecution for violating the laws guarding the public morality. In response, Wilde aggressively defended his novel and art in correspondence with the British press.<br/><br/>Wilde revised and expanded the magazine edition of The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890) for publication as a novel; the book edition (1891) featured an aphoristic preface — an apologia about the art of the novel and the reader. The content, style and presentation of the preface made it famous in its own literary right, as social and cultural criticism. In April 1891, the editorial house Ward, Lock and Company published the revised version of The Picture of Dorian Gray.<br/><br/>A True Classic that Belongs on Every Bookshelf!

Entrevista con el vampiro
Oscar Wilde • 2014
<p><p>Posiblemente la más original historia de vampiros jamás escrita, Entrevista con el vampiro, primer volumen de la serie «Crónicas Vampíricas», es ya un clásico de nuestro tiempo.</b></p> «-Pero ¿cuánta cinta tienes? preguntó el vampiro y se dio la vuelta para que el muchacho pudiera verle en perfil- ¿Suficiente para la historia de una vida? -Desde luego, si es una buena vida. A veces entrevisto hasta tres o cuatro personas en una noche si tengo suerte. Pero tiene que ser una buena historia. Eso es justo, ¿no le parece? -Sumamente justo contestó el vampiro. Me gustaría contarte la historia de mi vida. Me gustaría mucho.»</p>
