In Oscar Wilde’s, A Picture of Dorian Gray, the conflict between good and evil is not so much a conflict but a coexistence, it is not a struggle but an intricate balance.

thats my thesis to my summer reading paragraph.................................. which is due in an hour. is the grammar right bc something seems off to me THANKS

  1. Just remove the comma after "Wilde's" and change the one after "coexistence" to a semicolon.


  2. change the , after coexistence to a ; because the 2 ideas could be separate statements independent of each other... other than that good job....GOOD LUCK

  3. It isn't necessary to place a comma after Wilde's, because the name and the title go together, not in separate clauses.

    Also, after coexistence, the comma there isn't strong enough a punctuation to separate the two surrounding clauses ("the conflict between good and evil is not so much a conflict but a coexistence" and "it is not a struggle but an intricate balance") I'd suggest you place a semicolon there, or make them two separate sentences.

    Other than those two things, the grammar seems okay to me.
