About the Book

Follow the tragic tale of Dorian Gray, a young man captivated by his own striking portrait. In a Faustian bargain for eternal youth and beauty, Dorian exchanges his soul, embarking on a perilous journey into a life of hidden decadence. Influenced by the charismatic Lord Henry Wotton, Dorian leads a double life, indulging his desires in secret while maintaining a facade of respectability. Only his portrait bears the true, horrifying evidence of his moral decay. Originally a succès de scandale, this novel remains as potent and disturbing today as it was upon its controversial release, having been used as evidence against Wilde himself at the Old Bailey in 1895.
