<i>The Picture of Dorian Gray </i>[1891] is Oscar Wilde's masterful novel about a beautiful young man who is portrayed by an artist, and whose picture proceeds to age in his place. Led astray by an older friend, Dorian Gray acts upon his desires with no regard for the consequences. Despite this, he always manages to escape unpunished. His painted portrait, however, becomes increasingly distorted; and finally, he can no longer endure it.<br/>The dandy novel of dandy novels, <i>The Picture of Dorian Gray </i>is a story whose main character has come to signify a phenomena far beyond the boundaries of literature. One of the great classics of English fiction, here accompanied by Wilde s intriguing early short story, The Canterville Ghost [1887].<br/><br/>OSCAR WILDE [born 1854 in Dublin, died 1900 in Paris] was an Irish poet, playwright, prose writer and essayist. His significance as a symbol for persecuted homosexuals is immeasurable. Wilde was sentenced to two years of imprisonment with hard labour, his works were boycotted, dramatic productions were shut down, and he was publicly vilified. His most famous prose works include the Faustian novel <i>The Picture of Dorian Gray</i> and the autobiographical book about his trial and imprisonment, <i>De Profundis</i> [1905].

HERE LIES <b>KNOWLEDGE. POWER. GLORY. LOVE.</b> <br/><br/><br/><br/><b>'Devilishly macabre ... As dark as a midnight graveyard'</b> PATRICE McDONOUGH<br/><br/><b>'Hauntingly gothic, intimately told, and wickedly, wonderfully grotesque'</b> MARIELLE THOMPSON<br/><br/><br/><br/><b>In this decadent, twisty debut novel, a young medical student is lured into the illicit underworld of body snatching in 19th-century Edinburgh ... and unexpectedly falls in love.</b> <br/><br/><b>1828.</b> Naive but determined James Willoughby has abandoned his sheltered life at Oxford to pursue a lifelong dream of studying surgery in Edinburgh. A shining beacon of medical discovery in the age of New Enlightenment, Scotland's leading university offers everything James desires-except the chance to work on a human cadaver. For that, he needs to join one of the private schools in Surgeon's Square, at a cost he cannot afford. In desperation, he strikes a deal with Nye MacKinnon, a dashing young dissectionist with an artist's eye for anatomy and a reckless passion for knowledge. Nye promises to help James gain the surgical experience he craves-by inviting him into the illicit world of body snatching.<br/><br/>Intoxicated by Nye and his noble mission, James rapidly descends into the underground ranks of the Resurrectionists-the grave robbers infamous for stealing fresh corpses from churchyards to be used as anatomical specimens. Before he knows it, James is caught up in a life-or-death scheme as rival gangs of snatchers compete in a morbid race for power and prestige. And as they lock eyes across graves and dissection tables, it doesn't take James and Nye long to realise that they yearn to be more than partners in academic crime ...<br/><br/><b>Queer romance, true crime, and dark academia intertwine in this thrilling tale of love, murder, and the grisly origins of modern medicine.</b> <br/><br/><br/><br/><b>'A macabre gothic mystery ... a sensitive coming-of-age tale and a touching queer romance' </b> <i>firstCLUE</i> <br/><br/><b>'With wit as sharp as a scalpel ... A thrilling debut that will have readers turning pages deep into the night' </b>HESTER FOX<br/><br/><b>'Expertly captures ... the dark and twisted depths that are the byproducts of progress' </b>ANNA LEE HUBER

<b><i>'What you see with your eyes is not necessarily real' </i>A lavishly illustrated edition of Murakami's classic short story.</b><br/><br/>Katagiri found a giant frog waiting for him in his apartment. It was powerfully built, standing over six feet tall on its hind legs. A skinny little man no more than five foot three, Katagiri was overwhelmed by the frog's imposing bulk.<br/>'Call me "Frog,"' said the frog in a clear, strong voice.<br/>Katagiri stood rooted in the doorway, unable to speak.<br/>'Don't be afraid. I'm not here to hurt you. Just come and close the door. Please.'<br/>Briefcase in his right hand, grocery bag with fresh vegetables and canned salmon cradled in his left arm, Katagiri didn't dare move.<br/>'Please, Mr. Katagiri, hurry and close the door, and take off your shoes.'<br/><br/>Fully illustrated and beautifully designed, this special edition of Murakami's celebrated short story sees the bewildered Katagiri find meaning in his humdrum life through joining forces with Frog in an effort to save Tokyo from an existential threat.<br/><br/><b>'No other author mixes domestic, fantastic and esoteric elements into such weirdly bewitching shades' <i>Financial Times</i><br/><br/>'A master storyteller' <i>Sunday Times</i></b>
