This carefully crafted ebook: "The Picture of Dorian Gray: The Uncensored 13 Chapter Version + The Revised 20 Chapter Version" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. The Picture of Dorian Gray, the only novel by Oscar Wilde, was first published in 1890. A substantially revised and expanded edition was published in April 1891. For the new edition, Wilde revised the content of the novels existing chapters, divided the final chapter into two chapters, and created six entirely new additional chapters. Whereas the original edition of the novel contains 13 chapters, the revised edition of the novel contains 20 chapters. The 1891 version was expanded from 13 to 20 chapters, but also toned down, particularly in some of its overt homoerotic aspects. Also, chapters 3, 5, and 15 to 18 are entirely new in the 1891 version, and chapter 13 from the first edition is split in two (becoming chapters 19 and 20). The novel tells of a young man named Dorian Gray, the subject of a painting by artist Basil Hallward. Dorian is selected for his remarkable physical beauty, and Basil becomes strongly infatuated with Dorian, believing that his beauty is responsible for a new mode of art. The Picture of Dorian Gray is considered one of the last works of classic gothic horror fiction with a strong Faustian theme. It deals with the artistic movement of the decadents, and homosexuality, both of which caused some controversy when the book was first published. However, in modern times, the book has been referred to as "one of the modern classics of Western literature. Oscar Wills Wilde (1854 1900) was an Irish writer and poet. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of Londons most popular playwrights in the early 1890s. Today he is remembered for his epigrams, his only novel (The Picture of Dorian Gray), his plays and poetry, and the circumstances of his imprisonment and early death.

Atef Abu Saif Gazan jaio zen, baina 2019an, Palestinako Aginte Nazionalak Kultura ministro izendatu zuenean, Zisjordaniara aldatu zen. 2023ko urriaren 7an, baina, atzera berriz Gazan zegoen. Bere karguarekin lotutako hainbat konpromiso zituen, eta pentsatu zuen konpromiso haiek eta senideak bisitatzea uztargarriak izan zitezkeela. Horregatik berekin eraman zuen Yasser, hamabost urteko semea. Egun hartan, infernuko ateak parez pare ireki ziren Gazan. Israelgo armadaren inbasioaren lehenengo momentutik kale gorrian, aita-semeak hara eta hona ibili behar izan zuten iheska, gainerako gazatarrek bezala, aterpe bila baino gehiago Gazan aterperik ez dago-eta herioari iskin egiten. Horrela, 85 egun, harik eta handik nola edo hala atera ahal izan zuten arte. Egun haietan, ikusitakoari eta oroz gain bizitakoari buruzko kronikak idatzi eta Gazatik mundura bidali zituen Abu Saifek, ahal bezala, adibidez, sakelakoaren mezu laburren bitartez. Gertatuaren lekukotasun aparta ematen duten kronika horiek, biltuta, GAZAKO EGUNEROKOA osatzen dute. Gazakoa sarraski telebisatua da, bai, baina lan honek berriz ere agerian uzten du ez dela guztiz egia irudi batek hamaika hitzek baino gehiago balio duenik.
