A review by earthier
Salome by Aubrey Beardsley, Oscar Wilde

dark mysterious tense

3.0

Unexpectedly surrealist to me especially with the emphasis on the moon, although decadent by era of creation. The portions actually featuring Salome were sparse and I felt the soldiers and the religious talk didn’t actually add much and felt like filler aside from the prophet himself - otherwise the overall score would be higher. I enjoyed the psychology of it and the ‘plot twist’.
