Rather pleasing 'copyright edition' of Wilde's controversial novel produced in Paris by the risque publisher Charles Carrington. Contains Wilde's preface in response to the critical furore. 12mo. 312pp. With a bibliographic note to the rear concerning pirated copies of Dorian Gray plus advertisements. Spine is toned with some marking. Bumping and rubbing to extremities. Previous owner's inscription to ffep. Very light marking to fore-edge. Binding tight. A very nice, rakish edition in good condition.
