In Oscar Wilde's sole novel, the charismatic Dorian Gray trades conscience for perpetual beauty after a fateful wish before Basil Hallward's masterpiece portrait. Guided by the hedonistic Lord Henry Wotton, Dorian plunges into opium dens, forbidden affairs, and casual cruelty-while the hidden portrait records every scar his flesh should bear.
What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation:
- A Faustian Bargain of Beauty for Morality - Witness Dorian's transformation from innocent muse to decadent predator.
- Razor-Sharp Social Satire - Wilde skewers Victorian hypocrisy with wit still lethal today.
- Themes of Art, Influence, and Duality - Explore questions of identity, responsibility, and the true nature of self.
- A Cornerstone of Gothic Decadence - Influential on horror, queer literature, and modern pop culture.
- Refined, Accessible Prose - Archaic turns smoothed; Wilde's sparkling aphorisms preserved.
If you've ever wondered what you'd risk to stay young forever, Dorian's story is your cautionary mirror.
