different forms throughout the 1880s, the early 1890s saw him become one of the
most popular playwrights in London. He is best remembered for his epigrams and
plays, his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, and the circumstances of his
criminal conviction for "gross indecency", imprisonment, and early
