Description
Oscar Wilde, commissioned by Lippincott’s editor James M. Stoddart at the same dinner as Conan Doyle, produced The Picture of Dorian Gray for the magazine’s July 1890 issue. The editors cut some 500 words from the novel, without his knowledge, fearing there were “a number of things an innocent woman would make [sic] an exception to.”
