The new-old version of Dorian Gray

The Barnes and Noble Review has posted an article about the recent re-release of Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray. Wilde's novella was originally published in a heavily-edited form in a magazine called Lippincott's, and then further revised when it appeared in book form. This annotated, illustrated, and painfully expensive ($35! For a novella!) new edition is the first version in over one hundred and twenty years to feature Wilde's original text.
