Step into the hauntingly beautiful world of The Picture of Dorian Gray, Oscar Wilde’s only novel and one of the most enduring classics of modern literature. Published by Penguin Publications under the Select Classic series, this masterpiece is a dazzling exploration of vanity, desire, and the consequences of a life lived in pursuit of pleasure.
Follow the enigmatic Dorian Gray, a young man who exchanges his soul for eternal youth and beauty. As his portrait bears the weight of his sins, Dorian descends into a life of hedonism and moral decay, even as he remains outwardly untouched by time.
With Wilde’s trademark wit, razor-sharp critique of Victorian society, and lush, poetic prose, The Picture of Dorian Gray continues to captivate readers over a century after its debut. It’s a must-read for lovers of classic literature, gothic fiction, and philosophical novels that challenge the boundaries of art and ethics.
