Title: The Picture of Dorian Gray By: Oscar Wilde Format: Paperback Number of Pages: 176 Vendor: Dover Publications Dimensions: 8.25 X 5.19 (inches) | Weight: 5 ounces ISBN: 0486278077 ISBN-13: 9780486278070 Series: Dover Thrift Editions Stock No: WW78070 |
In this celebrated work, his only novel, Wilde forged a devastating portrait of the effects of evil and debauchery on a young aesthete in late-19th-century England. Combining elements of the Gothic horror novel and decadent French fiction, the book centers on a striking premise: As Dorian Gray sinks into a life of crime and gross sensuality, his body retains perfect youth and vigor while his recently painted portrait grows day by day into a hideous record of evil, which he must keep hidden from the world. For over a century, this mesmerizing tale of horror and suspense has enjoyed wide popularity. It ranks as one of Wilde's most important creations and among the classic achievements of its kind.
