Dorian Gray - no. 21

Complete Works (Geddes and Grosset, 2005)

Price: Insultingly cheap, something like £2.

History: I found this while looking around universities, in one of those terrible bookshops which sells cheap editions of a random selection of books. It wasn't even in alphabetical order, and was mostly made up of non-fiction.

Look: This is a really nice size, nice to hold and read - more the plays than the books, because the text is set out in two columns, newspaperstyle, and my eye wanders all over. I'm not sure what to make of the cover image - I suppose its Ok, but not what I would have chosen. I'm in two minds about the orange as well.

Introduction/Appendices: None.
