This joint centennial edition of Salome and Under the Hill, united by seventeen of Beardsley's unsurpassable drawings, is a timely rehabilitation of these two all-too-often ignored fin-de-siecle texts, and constitues a volume of unadulterated Decadent Erotica which must surely stand as the apogee of its kind.
Censored, banned, and ridiculed upon publication, Oscar Wilde's Salome, written in 1892 in the French language, must now be viewed as one of the greatest of all Decadent texts; an aesthetic masterwork which has seldom been accorded due respect.
Salome is an evocation of biblical horror in which blasphemies abound. More than this, its atmosphere seethes with a dangerous erotic charge from the very outset. Relentless, hypnotic repetitions in the words, arranged in fugue candences, the tale unfolds with the inexorable acceleration of an orgasmic nightmare.
Aubrey Beardsley's Under the Hill, a short work commenced in 1894, but left unfinished at the time of Beardsley's premature demise, nonetheless achieves the quintessence of Decadence, an evocation of a synaesthetic pleasure dome. A unique and indispensable text for any who seek the uttermost extremes of the manifest imagination.

终于在今天啃完了剧本。
评分比亚兹莱,有段时间很喜欢他这个唯美颓废的哥特风
评分The ues of language, which is archaic, portentious and mesmerising, and the use of the setting, which is that of a moonlit night where reason is banished and the submerged forces of desire and fear within the subconscious are unleashed. Wilde is a fucking awesome playwright!
评分"the mystery of love is greater than the mystery of death"巴比伦国王愿意用半壁江山,换莎乐美一舞。而莎乐美向国王索要的竟是他单相思爱人,施洗者圣约翰的头颅。莎乐美捧起先知的头,终于如愿以偿,将自己的红唇印在了先知冰冷的唇上。王尔德的salome很唯美执着颓废,病态美的容颜。很想看西班牙拍的这出歌舞剧。
