In this celebrated work and 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 the elements of decadent French fiction and a Gothic horror novel, the book revolves around a striking premise: As Dorian Gray sinks into a life of crime and gross sensuality, his body retains perfect youth and beauty while his recently painted portrait grows day by day into a hideous record of evil, which he must keep hidden from the world. For well over a century, this 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.It has gone on to inspire countless writers and creations in both film and writings. This is the pure unadulterated version of the story that has inspired so many and given such terror and joy to peoples lives. Read on, if you dare...
