This is very exciting news. As some of you may know, when The Picture of Dorian Gray was first published in the July 1980 issue of Lippincott's Monthly Magazine, it was heavily censored by the magazine's editors, who removed approximately 500 words (although still not enough to stop the uproar that followed). The censored version remained the only version available to the reading public until 2011, when Harvard University Press released the The Uncensored Picture of Dorian Gray; fully restored to the author's original vision, including the scenes of graphic homosexual content that the editors, fearing the wrath of offended Victorians, expunged.

It can be found (for a surprisingly low price) at Amazon (US), and at Barnes & Noble, and at De Gruyter.
