{"product_id":"the-picture-of-dorian-gray-oscar-wilde-9781542767002","title":"The Picture of Dorian Gray","description":"Dorian Gray is the subject of a full-length portrait in oil by Basil Hallward, an artist who is impressed and infatuated by Dorian's beauty; the artist believes that Dorian's beauty is responsible for the new mode in his art as a painter. Through Basil, Dorian meets Lord Henry Wotton, and he soon is enthralled by the aristocrat's hedonistic worldview: that beauty and sensual fulfillment are the only things worth pursuing in life. Newly understanding that his beauty will fade, Dorian expresses the desire to sell his soul, to ensure that the picture, rather than he, will age and fade. The wish is granted, and Dorian pursues a libertine life of varied and amoral experiences, while staying young and beautiful; all the while his portrait ages and records every sin.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Oscar Wilde\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1542767008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781542767002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/26\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.27d","brand":"Oscar Wilde","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43985004790015,"sku":"9781542767002","price":6.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_80dc57a3-e1a4-4078-a6ab-64899a6792ef.jpg?v=1683275151","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-picture-of-dorian-gray-oscar-wilde-9781542767002","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
