When the young and handsome Dorian Gray sees his newly painted portrait, he wishes to remain forever youthful, while the painting ages in his place. As he descends into a world of hedonism, moral decay, and secrecy, his outward beauty remains untouched, but his soul darkens with every sin. Oscar Wilde's only novel is a daring philosophical exploration of art, ethics, and the double lives we lead, as captivating today as when it first shocked Victorian readers.
A haunting portrait of beauty, vanity, and the cost of desire.
- Explore the dangers of vanity and eternal youth.
- Delve into Wilde's rich prose and biting wit.
- Examine the divide between appearance and morality.
- Uncover a gothic tale filled with decadence and dread.
