A review by billiamdyemyhair
The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

4.0

Really quite excellent but to me somewhat disappointing. I was expecting this to be light, funny Wilde (there’s some of this) and instead this is a lot of philosophy and horror. It’s amazing, very interesting, sometimes funny, and very quotable but I feel like it also can be long winded. Oscar Wilde has his own character to commentate over the novel and he never seems to shut up (not even a bad thing all the time just annoying when it goes on for pages)
