Beschreibung

What if you could remain young and beautiful forever—while your soul bears the cost of your sins?

The Picture of Dorian Gray is Oscar Wilde's only novel and one of the most provocative works of 19th-century literature. Blending gothic horror with philosophical depth, the novel explores themes of vanity, morality, hedonism, and the double life of appearances.

Dorian Gray, a handsome young aristocrat, trades his soul so his portrait ages while he remains outwardly untouched by time. As he spirals into a world of pleasure and depravity, the painting becomes a horrifying reflection of his inner decay.

This Kindle edition features Wilde's original uncensored text, complete with elegant formatting and a navigable table of contents—perfect for students, scholars, and lovers of decadent literature.

💬 What Readers Say:
"A haunting masterpiece that still feels modern."
"Wilde's wit is as sharp as his insights are dark."
"The ultimate novel of vanity and corruption."
