any readers of Oscar Wilde's out there?
i'm just reading some of the works done by him...haven't read PIctures of Dorian Gray yet, but have read The Selfish Giant, Importance of being Earnest...and some of the short story...
but stakat yg terbace ni, i'd say that my fav would be The Selfish Giant...
it has the same kinda genre as Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol...but still uniqe on its own...
i like the part when the little boy - who was actually the Messiah(prophet Jesus from my interpretation) took away the Giant's life!
he had such a lovely passing...
never knew that Giant can be that kind... |

I've only read "The Picture of Dorian Gray". It's brilliant, with a repulsive display of narcissism. I think you'll like it! |
