🖼️ What if your soul aged for you… and kept all your sins?
The Picture of Dorian Gray is the only novel by Oscar Wilde, and one of the most enduring works of gothic literature. Set in Victorian London, this philosophical and decadent masterpiece follows Dorian Gray, a strikingly handsome young man who makes a Faustian bargain: while his portrait bears the marks of his sins and aging, he remains outwardly perfect.
Through dazzling wit, razor-sharp dialogue, and haunting symbolism, Wilde explores themes of vanity, moral decay, aestheticism, and the duality of human nature. This unabridged edition preserves Wilde's rich prose and biting critique of society, art, and the pursuit of pleasure at any cost.
