The Picture of Dorian Gray and Three Stories
Finally read this classic. I found Wilde's style a little too . . . ornate at times, too clogged with his epigrams. Even though I'm sure they served a purpose, and were illustrative of one character's nature, I just found them to be too much after a while. The scene where Dorian's crime is committed was quite chilling, though, very well done. A good story, just not as perfect as I'd expected.The three short stories were good, especially The Happy Prince and Lord Arthur Saviles's Crime: the first because it is one of Wilde's beautiful fairy tales, and the latter because of the wry twist of events.
