So ... we're keeping this reading nice and boring.
We're mentioning and discussing the novel as we go through it; Dorian is making a lot of references in Chapter 11 to stuff he's done in the years that are flying by in these pages.
Some of the references are ... more than little too much for this class, but that is Oscar Wilde.
We got to page 117, by the way.
“Words! Mere words! How terrible they were! How clear, and vivid, and cruel! One could not escape from them. And yet what a subtle magic there was in them! They seemed to be able to give a plastic form to formless things, and to have a music of their own as sweet as that of viol or of lute. Mere words! Was there anything so real as words?”
