Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by LizB of Should Be Reading.
The rules are:
- Grab your current read.
- Open to a random page.
- Share 2 teaser sentences from somewhere on that page.
- Be careful not to include spoilers.
- Share the title and author, too, so that other Teaser Tuesday participants can add the book to their TBR lists if they like your teasers!
My teaser today is from a classic: The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. And I did not quite manage with 2 sentences. :)
" The love that he bore him -for it was really love- had nothing in it that was not noble and intellectual. It was not that mere physical admiration of beauty that is born of the senses, and that dies when the senses tire. It was such love as Michael Angelo had known, and Montaigne, and Winckelmann, and Shakespeare himself. Yes, Basil could have saved him. But it was too late now." [p. 115]
