These are some of the books I read during last half a century or so, and some of the thoughts, questions, reactions and insights, emotions - and so forth -, evoked on reading them, either then or later sometime during the interim years and decades, or even thinking over now, that are summed up here while trying to record my impressions about what I read.

The Picture of Dorian Gray; by Oscar Wilde.
Story of a man who is able to keep an innocent visage in spite of a horrible life and actions, and it is only his mirror - an allegory for his conscience, his inner self - that shows him as he is.
