Really starting to see why this is one of the greats. I’m liking how meditative it’s become so far

Hearing the way Lord Henry talks about women is really something else. I understand not liking women bc you’re forced to wed one, but this dude actually has a genuine hatred for women in any capacity simply bc they exist. Kinda scary tbh but I know this sentiment was probably shared among men throughout history who were stuck in similar situations. Anyways…I gasped out loud after reading Sybil’s demise.

I’m starting to understand a bit more about Lord Henry’s appeal. Seems like a chill guy if he wasn’t actively reshaping every aspect of Dorian’s psyche for the worse

Very tea. I’m really liking how Basil speaks about his work and as a creative I definitely relate to putting “too much of yourself” into your work to the point of not wanting anyone to see. Especially the people in it. Gotta say, Lord Henry is really giving “mean gay” vibes and I’m struggling to find any redeeming qualities in him yet. Hopefully that changes bc he’s a very interesting character.
